It comes as former prime minister Liz Truss said she was “appalled” at the treatment of the former Ukip leader, whose bank account closure by Coutts sparked a crisis at its parent company NatWest. Launching his campaign, Mr Farage said he wants to “fight back against the big banks that have let us down”.
The AccountClosed.org website currently asks visitors: “A major scandal is emerging – banks are unfairly closing accounts, do you think it is time to stop this?” In a six-minute video on Twitter, now known as X, Mr Farage said: “We will build together, I believe, if you engage, a very, very significant and powerful group of people.

News to me - is this more of your vivid imagination getting the better of you? No. clearly it is as there is no such thing as uk law. Trying buying a house in scotland mate under uk law and see where that gets you.
Moving to Scotland
Scotland has a separate legal system from England. Whilst there are many similarities between the English and Scottish legal systems there are also many differences. This is especially true when it comes to buying property in Scotland. Here’s a list of the more frequently asked questions we have been asked by people moving to Scotland or who are first time buyers. www.hspc.co.uk/moving-from-england-to-scotland.asp |

So, this EU law we're discussing won't have been applied in Scotland, then? EU regulations and directives stopped at the Scottish border? The important point for our purpose is that there is no developed doctrine of good faith in UK law. Scottish law doesn't have a developed doctrine of good faith. |

Thanks for the history lesson, though. here to help darling. i learned that there was no such thing as "uk law" in primary school. admittedly it was a primary on a glaswegian council estate. Even so , they appear to have done a stupendous job of informing me of the basics of the uk multi national state.

It's a psychological thing. Because you have to find Nigel Farage in the wrong, you find yourself stuck and unable to integrate the fact that he is in the right. So, you grasp upon the fact that he only started to be right at some point and so before that point he must have been in the wrong. Order is restored to your mind. Not an argument you would use if the shoe was on the other foot. Contrary to you my interest in this thread (right from the start) was the sheer number of people who are de-banked each year. That so many people myself included have had the banks pick on us when we were vulnerable and seize our assets, charge us unfair fees with impunity. I am relatively wealthy now but I don't trust the banks at all and I find it hypocritical that the interest in the banks bad behaviour revolves around Nigel Farage having his account closed with no financial cost to him (As far as we know) This supposed 'hypocrisy' seems to be a figment of your imagination. Hypocrisy involves someone coming to inconsistent judgments with the same pertinent information and certainty. The actual hypocrisy seems to be yours and you outline it in your post. You have generally sympathetic ear for people who claim to be abused by the banks, except when their name is Nigel Farage. If the victim's name is Nigel Farage, you skate around for days trying you very best, despite all apparent evidence to contrary, to make the bank correct. |

My views on this from the start are that 25,000 plus bank accounts are closed every year. Mostly on people who have no money and no voice.
Think what you like.

I can be sympathetic to people losing family to violence but not be sympathetic to Putin being killed. We humans do it all the time and call it judgement, not hypocrisy. |

the final sentence is in a nutshell zanys highly intellectual and self important contribution to this thread , showing what a nasty individual he is , and how he cannot bear to rise above personal dislike of nigel farage irrespective of how unfair the man is being treated.
Christ , even Alba mp Neale hanvey managed to rise above his political dislike for farage , and come out in support of him over the debanking scandal.

Someone earlier talking about" popular arguments" is now reduced to dragging putin into threads to plead for a measure of respect in a thread he has been out on a limb on since the day he started posting on it.
pathetic.

If there's no such thing as UK law, Hollyrood can legally declare independence. But it can't. And that's because it's subject to the British Constitution. Good luck arguing that the Constitution isn't law.  |

Why do certain folk have so much difficulty with concepts such as uk legislators legislating into different legal systems such as scottish or english law?
did nt the legal philosopher james wilson say there was no such thing as a british constitution?
