Debanking Has Arrived: Farage Pursues Legal Action as He’s Left Without Bank Account

[Tall Timbers]

“The establishment are trying to force me out of the UK by closing my bank accounts… If they can do it to me, they can do it to you too”, said ‘Mr Brexit’ as he revealed that suddenly no British bank would let him have an account.

Having a bank account is necessary to interact with modern society in a basic way and being deprived of that facility is tantamount to becoming a “non-person”, a downcast Nigel Farage said Thursday as he revealed he and close members of his family are being prevented from holding an account in the United Kingdom. Warning viewers on Thursday night, he reflected: “This is going on in our country. It’s happening to plenty of people, I just happen to be one of them.

“But do you know what? Unless this rot is stopped in time to come you at home may say things on Facebook or Twitter that may result in you losing your bank accounts too. That, I think, is how scary this whole thing is.”

Farage had banked with the same banking group since the 1980s for both personal and business, he said, and that no reason was given for his longstanding relationship with the unnamed bank being terminated.

Unbelievable!! I wish it were reassuring that madness is spreading worldwide, but frankly it's not. But this does add to the hope that the Rapture will be soon. Every time I wonder how much more evil the world can get, they take another step down...

I can only imagine having a bunch of bank checks representing your life savings and not being able to cash them let alone deposit them with another bank. Maybe a small local bank would do it. If you're a working stiff a lot of employers only pay by direct deposit... Taking away a person's access to banking in this day and age is a serious thing with huge consequences. I think we need a law prohibiting banks from doing this sort of thing.

Eventually there will be a law, a law that if you don’t wear a mark you will not be able to bank. I hope I’m not here when that law is passed.

You won't be. That mark dictate issues from the antiChrist. We'll be long gone by then.

There will always be an England, goes the saying. But will there? If what’s happening to former party leader and Brexit champion Nigel Farage is any indication, that charming old axiom may have reached its sell-by date.

In an editorial entitled “After my banking travails, I fear Britain is lost,” Farage tells a hair-raising tale of institutionalized political bigotry and discrimination. It combines the kind of systemic abuse once associated with Soviet rule but now sadly common in the United States with the sort of social credit tyranny one sees in China.

“…We are living through the politicisation of our corporate sector. Woe betide you if you do not conform with its worldview,” writes Farage. “This was brought home to me when I was recently told by my bank [since 1980] that it is closing all my accounts without explanation. It is impossible to function without a bank account. It should alarm everybody that a bank has the power to punish those it considers to have erred or strayed.”

He goes on to detail his financial ostracization as bank after bank refused to accept his business, and he gives examples of other politicians — always conservative — to whom it has also happened. Not only are these victims “unpersoned” and rendered unable to conduct business or even function in society, but they also face psychological extortion from vast, faceless institutions as their family members suffer the same fate. Basically, the banks tell the target, “Step down from politics or the kid gets it.”

But these powerful financial corporations still require a fig leaf to justify their abuse for PR purposes, and this is provided by a legislative or executive body. As was once SOP in Stalin’s Russia but is now common in the U.S., a “crime” is alleged and bounced to the media for magnification. Farage tells what he was baselessly accused of, and you’re not going to believe it:
