    Mp,s ,Ministers & Lords us private banks like Cootes because they dont trust the public Banking system .
    Hundreds of bank & building society branches are closing in March just prior to the new April tax year .
    Digital banking sucks UK has record high data breache,s , I just went to Barclays only to find Out that both of my bank cards dont work anymore and now have to wait for them to post 2 more cards then have to wait until the new numbers turn up , And these people want everyone to just bank on line .

    UK GDP forcast for the next 2 yrs is flat at best , The UK gov are giving out billions to Israel & its sister state Ukrain , The massive influx of Immigrants is costing billions .
    Both Labor & Conservatives are pushing to back into the EU which means the banking System will be subject to EU banking laws . And i dont think they will be welcoming that one

    But Barclays have just publically announced that they are closing expatriate bank accounts. This is not decreasing it getting worse.

    It was a very bad decision to remove the Glass-Steagall Act in the late 1990s, which led to the spectacular failure of huge banks during the financial crisis of 2007–2008. To prevent another disaster, Dodd-Frank and this statute both need to be reestablished right away. What happened with UK banks is only the beginning of what will happen if nothing is done to address the current situation.

    I think the Right moreso & the Left are RIDICULIOUS. GBNews are under fire in many ways so that's GREAT! They were supposed to be neutral lol. Maybe TalkTV will take their place in a better way.

    As we The People are the mass number compared to any level of authorities in banking and or government then we can provide ourselves with our own mandate and DE-BANK the banks. That is to turn the tables on them. Whilst it is harder to move banks these days it is still possible. I recall when we had fuel strikes in the early nineties, I believe and we were sending text messages to all and sundry that on a particular day that week we would not purchase say, BP petroleum for our vehicles…that soon got their attention as the media ran with the stories and government and its trade department did not look good…

    Protecting cash by using it reduces the power of banks to direct our lives.

    I have no idea why the bank that is in the spotlight for closing accounts would think the next move is to now limit customers access to cash withdrawals and deposits. Since 2 have now left since this began, and the government own almost 40%…..who is allowing these kind of restraints on the public?

    so what have the 650 MPs we have been doing for the last 4 years. They cannot say or they did not notice or noone told them. I think we vneed a big big political shakeup.

    BANKS ww are in crisis they have NO CHOICE but to force digital currency and bluff their way out. New ideology, force it on us. Bank MONOPOLY: the logical conclusion of capitalism. They have us by the THROATS. They'll NEVER back down.

    Sunak's approval of the 100 exploitation licences IS A SHAM and you KNOW IT. The 75% tax levy prevents any company from taking one up 😤😤😤

    Occupy WallSt in America was the moment the world banks realise they needed to distract the populace w/ identity politics, division & mass media propaganda to cover for their own colossal mistakes. We have been living in their world since.

    This is a war against the people the government won't help it is controlled by the WEF. The people need to get together in huge numbers to confront this and other linked controls designed to take away freedoms.

Published

Watch as Will Kensington expresses concern about the state of the UK, arguing that Downing Street is no longer a place of power but has instead become Britain’s most expensive Airbnb.

This comes as Andy Burnham is set to become the UK’s seventh Prime Minister in a decade, with seemingly no one challenging the “King of the North” for the country’s top job.
