Becky should get a medal for moderating on here. I only read some of it, it would my idea of hell to have to read all of a certain person's wearisome gobbledegook.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

So the resignation of two CEO's in major banks due to debanking someone based on legally held views, and then the bank u turns, is a non story?

Wissie, which means an open and shut case for the banks

Let’s see what is actually revealed, why it’s being done and what proposals, if any, are made.

Don’t hold your breath. I wouldn’t put a lot of money on Farage’s claims being accurate.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

That’s the kind of argument a conspiracy theorist relies on.

Things can only be proved in a court of law and then only to the “beyond a reasonable doubt “ standard, thus always leaving room for personal doubt or new evidence. That proof has to be produced by the accuser not the accused, who is innocent until proven guilty. It’s never the task of the accused to prove their innocence. Which enables many who are undoubtedly rogues to get away with things.

So is it reasonable? Not in every day life. In a court, yes, but with the burden of proof reversed.

As this is not a court, it cannot be in this thread. All there will ever be are opinions.

What's ethically and morally acceptable can be a matter of opinion. The only way to resolve differences of opinion is via the law.

Not the way it seems to me.

They have had a PR disaster and are scrambling to repair it anyway they can.

I suspect their PR agency advised them to swallow hard and take the hit.

Total Farage victory.
