- Nigel Farage, a prominent Brexiteer and broadcaster, claimed that his bank accounts have been closed without given reason, suggesting serious political persecution at the highest level.

- Other parties and politicians on the right of politics, such as the Reclaim Party and Reform UK, have also reportedly been denied bank accounts or had accounts closed, indicating a coordinated effort by financial institutions to target right-wing figures.
TL;DR an MP accused him of accepting £550,000 from Russian state news organisation RT.
The banks probably can’t say anything for legal reasons. However the fact that it’s happening, and the fact that 7 banks have rejected him from opening a new account, strongly suggest it’s true.
