American conservatives will have to adjust their thinking, and probably after much tribulation. The goal should no longer be a hands off small government, but rather a government controlled by your people that will punish your enemies. The former vision has failed and the other half of the country is playing hardball.

Conservatives better hope they don’t get their wish with banning crypto currencies…
Could this have something to do with British banks distancing themselves from crypto businesses?

What’s the rule here though?
That’s seems to be the problem in that whatever the rule is it is ambiguous and open to interpretation.
But that’s not the question to ask.
You should be concerned with how a government is using influence to interfere in the life of someone that has committed no crimes.
Does that concern you at all? It appears it doesn’t .

Sure it is.
How else can you understand what's happening here?
I think Farage is in a position to much better describe what this is all about.

No. He's in a position to relay to you what the banks are telling him. I'm sure he's not privy to their internal deliberations, or to their interactions with other parties who have interest in the matter. And yeah, this is EXACTLY the sort of thing that happens under fascist regimes.

Farage plainly stated he can not get answers as to what is going on.

Sounds like the same shite that happens in the US.
“Sir, we are closing your account because you violated policies.”
“What policies?”
“We aren’t allowed to disclose that.”

I'm just not sure how the "Politically Exposed Person" reason explains things though. Surely Britain has a lot of politicians who are necessarily categorized as PEPs. All that means is banks should use more diligence with them. I don't see every other British politician complaining about this.
Someone earlier in thread mentioned crypto and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with this. Farage has become a big crypto guy in recent years. If his complaint is actually about crypto businesses then this would make more sense.

Farage’s third theory is that banks have been scared off by claims that he says are totally false — made under parliamentary privilege last year by Labour MP Sir Chris Bryant — that he received £548,573 from the Kremlin-backed Russia Today television station in 2018. Bryant has never repeated the claim outside of parliament and there appears to be no evidence to support his claim. Bryant declined to comment. “The truth is I’ve never received any money from any sources with any link to Russia,” Farage said.

He now believes he needs to leave the UK.
Wonderful. He can come to Lewisville, TEXAS, and open personal and business accounts at DATCU Credit Union.

You are a window licking retard if you don't realize government regulations are forcing these banks to close all of his accounts.

That person is not the subject of this thread. IF you think it is then you don't understand the battle that is going on on earth.
If you did realize that but inquired anyway then carry on. No problem.

I don't know what could be more conservative than using power to stop the radical social and economic change pursued by the left.
