This Is Incredible !!!

Nigel Farage may be hounded out of the UK

[sp1814]

Cancelled?

No.

Refused business in the same way that the cake shop refused to serve a customer based on their strongly held beliefs.

If you support the cake shop, then you should support Yorkshire Building Society.

Otherwise...hypocrisy.

SP, He still hasn't expressed an 'opinion' on that specific issue. He simply said 'When moving around London this week, it’s been impossible not to notice a symbol adorning the premises of many of our corporations, including the banks: the multicoloured Pride flag. We are living through the politicisation of our corporate sector. Woe betide you if you do not conform with its worldview', and followed by mentioning the vicar who's been cancelled.

[sp1814]

The principle with Farage and the vicar is the same - nob company can be forced to do business with anyone. If a gay couple can be refused service by a cake shop, then the same goes for banks.

[sp1814]

The "cancelled" customer is the vicar.

[naomi24]

I know.... and so is Farage.

Zacs-Master ; //Khandro, have you actually watched the video in your original post? It would seem not as Farage clearly says he has approached other banks:
‘I’ve been to six, no seven banks actually. Ask them all, could I have a personal and a business account? And the answer has been no’//

Of course I've watched the bloodyvideo. When Farage approached each bank asking to open a new account, they would simply put his name in the computer & see the Couts/Natwest 'warning' & decline his request without any ado.

[Old_Geezer]

The same can not be the case for banking. First not having cake is merely a disappointment while no financial service has a devastating effect of folk. Secondly government has dictated that one can not demand payment for one's labour in cash, which helps cause point 1 above; no such demand has been made relating to cake.

[Zacs-Master]

Khandro, then why did you write ‘ I don't think he was rejected in the form of individual decisions by each bank’
When what Farage said makes it clear that he did contact each bank?

[sp1814]

Khandro

You know if you've been turned down for insurance - that fact is shared amongst insurance companies, which makes it difficult for you to get insured elsewhere - same with banks.

[Khandro]

Zacs-Master, What can you not understand about my statement, 'I don't think he was rejected in the form of individual decisions by each bank’ ? others seem to understand me, or do you just want an argument as usual?

Each bank didn't weigh up Farage's circumstances individually, they acted as the cartel which they are, he was blacklisted by the first one, which is all they needed to know - get it?

[Zacs-Master]

‘ Each bank didn't weigh up Farage's circumstances individually’

Did they? Where are you getting that info from? Sounds a bit conspiratorial to me.

[douglas9401]

Why not just choose a bank with historic connections to the Nazis?

They obviously have different criteria for account holders to the lily-livered deniers of service he's tried so far.

[retrocop]

This is quite a damning indictment of how banks and other financial businesses conduct themselves with innocent people's accounts.
Dominic Lawson's wife, Rosa, tried to open an account for their Downs syndrome daughter with Barclays and was refused. Why ? Because her Grandfather was the late ex chancellor Nigel Lawson. read on if you will.

Zacs-Master //Sounds a bit conspiratorial to me.//

Precisely! See sp 1814 at 11:01 above.

What is your point for chrissakes?

[Ellipsis]

> If you support the cake shop, then you should support Yorkshire Building Society.

> Otherwise...hypocrisy.

You mean, having your cake and eating it ...

[Zacs-Master]

Always with the insults, eh Khandro! As I’ve told you before, if you, or anyone else for that matter, posts things which appear to be facts without any supporting evidence, I will challenge them.

Now, if you could be civil for a while, how do you know that the banks have colluded?

[sp1814]

ZM

I agree with your assertion that there was no collusion. Banks share information based on the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017.

If an account-holder is deemed a risk for one bank, they will be deemed a risk for all. This has nothing to do with 'wokeness".

It's not like the CEOs of Lloyds, Nat West and Barclays got together to give Farage a kicking.

That's a smokescreen.

[Khandro]

ZM: The word collusion/colluded is yours, not mine. The banks have not 'colluded' in the sense that they have joined forces to do something illegal, I have never said that.
I have said that Farage & others (Toby Young & the aforesaid vicar & others) have been blacklisted by the banking cartel; if one refuses an account they all do.

[Zacs-Master]

He’s in France at the moment.
BNP Paribas: Non monsieur Farage
Crédit Agricole: Non monsieur Farage
Société Générale: Non monsieur Farage
BPCE: Non monsieur Farage
Crédit Mutuel - Uns moment…….Non monsieur Farage

Maybe?
