Ive Been Lying Awake At Night Aristocrat Says Her Bank Account Was Closed With No Explanation

Nigel Farage has claimed he has documents showing Coutts bank closed his account because his views on Brexit, Donald Trump and gender ideology “do not align with our values”. The former Brexit Party leader obtained an internal report from the bank’s reputational risk team that was used to justify the closure via a subject access request. The Treasury has said banking firms will be forced to explain and delay any decision to close an account under new rules designed to protect freedom of expression. Alexandra Tolstoy tells Kevin O’Sullivan that her bank account was closed by NatWest. “It’s such a huge consequence to have no account. I’ve been laying awake every night, like how am I going to exist, how will I pay my rent? You just can’t exist without a bank account.” A NatWest spokesman said it treated compliance as “a matter of priority” but it could not comment on the specifics of the case. #coutts #bank #nigelfarage #talktv #talkradio
