Following his own sensational debanking due to his political views, Nigel Farage has formally begun a campaign to take on the large banks and represent members of the public who have had their accounts closed unfairly.
After successfully leading the campaign to quit the globalist EU project, Brexit’s Nigel Farage has set his eyes on a new target: the increasingly woke and authoritarian financial industry.
Mr Farage has been embroiled in a public battle with the NatWest banking group over Coutts’ decision to close his account due to his views on Brexit, vaccines, the LGBT agenda, and friendships with figures such as President Donald Trump, and finally, subsequent leaks to the BBC about his personal account details from the ex NatWest CEO.
According to the Brexit leader, the “major national scandal” has resulted in him receiving an outpouring of correspondences from members of the public relaying that they too have been victimised by the big banks.
To marshal a campaign against the ESG-promoting industry, Mr Farage launched a new website (accountclosed.org) for the debanked to form a “powerful group to lobby government” and prevent the rise of politically biased banking, particularly given the fact that many banks, including NatWest, were bailed out by the taxpayer in 2008.
“I’m beginning to have the impression this is much, much bigger than any of us could have contemplated,” he told The Telegraph.
“This is about the right to free speech, about having a country where people are treated fairly in an age when you frankly can’t function on a personal level, let alone a business level, without a bank account.”
The Brexit leader said that he has already been contacted personally by “dozens” of small businesses in the UK who had their accounts shut down by banks who did not want to deal with cash.
With the rise of digital payments and contactless credit cards, many areas in the UK are already refusing to accept cash, implying not only increased surveillance opportunities for the government but also increased profits for banks, given that, unlike cash, every financial transaction involves a fee that goes into their pockets.
The issue of a cashless society is becoming more real, with governments in the United Kingdom, the European Union, and the United States all attempting to introduce Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which even the Bank of England has admitted could be “programmable” by the state, controlling how people spend their money, prompting many to fear the rise of something akin to the social credit score in Communist China.
