Personally I look forward to his findings; if my current bank isn’t woke enough I will move.

A Gingerbread Them? Probably cant say ginger anymore either.

Them-on drizzle cake?

Now you're being childish. It's tedious, and lazy, when people post the same stuff which has already been posted, and addressed, multiple times.

M But there is something in place. The 9 biggest banks are legally required to provide basic banking services. This has already been highlighted. Can you not just read the thread before you wade in?

No it isnt, there's rules and regulations regarding public utilites like this; this has been addressed previously in this thread. The difference is Coutts is a private bank.

I’m not spinning at all, this would be hard given I have have a very very simple view of this issue which I have re-iterated numerous times now. My point about post 164 is that it’s a private bank….a point I also made. This is all.

1) I haven't actually commented on the leaking of confidential information. For the record I don’t agree with this. 2) If The Grand decided they didn’t want my custom for the reasons you give, I’d be disappointed and go around the corner to Hotel Du Vin. Or maybe I’d go abroad to Ibiza or...

Please get a grip.

See post #164.

Coutts is a private bank for the privileged, it’s entirely up to them who they have as customers as long as they don’t break any laws. If they choose to not have certain gobshites as customers so be it, the same as if I ran a business and didn’t want certain types darkening my door.

If I waste anymore time at your expense it will be trying to remember your old username. I'm pretty sure it had gully in it, but I cannot remember the rest.

I dont see what the manner of the association/engagement has to do with it. But if you do want to limit it to customers there are examples of customers being banned from things as their views and/or behaviour are not aligned with the business. Wasnt Farage banned from his own local?

There’s quite a few. Kanye West and Adidas for example. Adidas stated his very public views are not aligned with theirs.

I'm sure my politics are very much aligned to those of my public utility providers. I have no concerns :smile:

This is a very specific case, it's a specific person and a specific bank. Had this been a High Street bank and a member of the public I might think differently, but it isnt. For these reasons I dont buy your 'where will it end' line.

For this I apologise.

I completely disagree, it is up to Coutts who they want to be associated with, or without. As I say, this is nothing new as businesses are often disassociating themselves with people or entities which do not share the same values or beliefs. As for cancel culture...who's cancelling who here...

Why should his views not impact his custom? Many businesses drop people if they feel their views are not alligned with theirs....this is not new. There are many examples of this.
