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.
Farage refused to name the prestigious banking group involved but stated that the closures were part of an establishment plot to force him out of the UK.
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.

“Farage expresses concern that without a bank account, he feels like a non-person and may struggle to exist and function in modern-day Britain, suggesting that life in the country is becoming unlivable for him.”

He is finally feeling the consequences of brexit. This is exactly how a hateful nationalist should feel. Like a non person.

Fuck around? Its fine out time.

Good riddance
