Woke watch

Post arsene york-hunt »

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

"You're being supremely thick today, Willtell. Surface has already told you that the bank's owner dossier clearly stated that he met the bank's commercial criteria. Why not read up on this before randomly coming up with your own suggestions on what's happened?"

"Surface Well mate. Nothing you said there leads me to think differently. The truth is that banks like Coutts probably do that kind of report for every client that doesn't have enough money in their account. That's why I said this - ""Farage is no longer the right kind of client. He's a radio chat show presenter without enough money to justify banking with them."""

Agreed BRANDED but again? When were UK banks nationalised apart from saving a couple from going under in the 2007/8 period?

"Willtell That's an interesting theory. Or it would be if it wasn't directly at odds with what Coutts stated in their dossier. To paraphrase, they didn't like the cut of his jib but couldn't just bin him off because he was far too influential and mouthy. They had to manufacture a situation whereby they could claim to be closing his account for commercial reasons. Still, nearly worked, so no harm done, eh? Oh!"

Coutts is the 8th oldest bank in the world. It thrives on an elite status of being bankers for the richest and most influential people in the world. Farage makes a big fuss about it but let's face it. Farage is not longer the right kind of client. He's a radio chat show presenter without enough money to justify banking with them. Brexit probably has fuck all to do with it and no I haven't bothered reading up on it. It's who you know and your family background with banks like Coutts. Farage is just upset at not being elite enough for them any longer I'll wager.

"Darlo Debs 9:03 Fri Jul 21 'Surf yes of course I apologise for believing information available at that point' That's not what happened though, is it? You choose to believe the story from Coutts/Nat West, the literal epitome of both big business and privilege against the word of Farage, the victim of what is now acknowledged by the bank to have been malpractice. You should be ashamed of believing the bastion of privilege above their customer and even more ashamed at your mealy-mouthed non-apology."

"Banks handle money on behalf of customers. Their only consideration should be commercial. However, politics might affect customers decisions and I’d be curious to know if their was any pressure by wealthier customers at Coutts to remove Farrage. Would n’t surprise me."

"Fo, where that falls short though is they won’t name and shame it’s many other account holders who are just the same…..Farage is ten’a’penny on affluent folk who have made their crust in devious ways….yet a certain section only want to see Farage pulled up for telling the truth about his time as an employee of the EU parliament…."

Far be it for me to stick up for Coutts (which cancels the vast majority of folk simply because they are not rich enough - an irony lost on the usual suspects here) its description of Farage as a 'disingenuous grifter' is as wonderfully lyrical as it is true.

"The bank haven't offered to re open Sir Nige's account which is the very least they should be doing. And is anyone really surprised that the BBC have been caught lying again? While enough gullible people hang on every word these cunts say, they'll keep doing it. Anyone see Sir Kid Starver on Kuensberg last week? Fuck me, is this wooden flip flopping clown really going to be our next 'leader'? Think I'd prefer Rayner,at least she seems to have some guts and working class credentials."

Quite clear to me that notwithstanding Farage not entirely fulfilling the criteria to hold a particular Coutts account that Bank chose not to indulge him because of who he is. For this reason everyone at the top of the BBC needs sacking.

"That Coutts dossier is pretty damning. We now have documentary evidence that Coutts had been plotting for years to close Farage's account for political reasons. Realising that Farage would very publicly cry foul, they concocted a plan whereby they could pretend they were closing his account on economic grounds - essentially by refusing, for no good commercial reason, to renew his mortgage. it's an absolute shit-show, so bad that heads will actually roll all over the place. Except at the BBC, of course, who deliberately spread the lie that the account was closed for purely financial reasons. I expect Debs will be on to make her apology any time now."
