    The nail that sticks out gets hammered. If you want to do dodgy shit financially, all you have to do is avoiding sticking out. See the panama papers.

    Farage on a crusade about banks but didnt do the same when the Panama papers scandal happened. This is just more Farage grift fuel.

      This story is nothing to do with Farage or Coutts. That is completely missing the point.

      It’s just brought the story of people being refused bank accounts or being kicked out of their accounts into the forefront. If it means banks can’t get away with closing people’s accounts for spurious reasons as a result of this, then great.
