No "little people" have had their accounts closed by Coutts. No "little people" bank with Coutts.
No one is saying that.
What Farage is saying is that he has been contacted by others, who bank with various banks, who have had their accounts closed for non-financial reasons.
The starting point is Coutts, which may well only involve Farage.
The next step is to examine the conduct of Coutts' owners, RBS, which then brings in RBS and Nat West.
My brother told me he was involved in a lot of PEP cases when he worked for Nat West as a senior commercial manager.
It must be the case the other banks have PEP/account closure stories to tell.
I daresay most of those account holders will have been Pepped in line with the regulations, but it also looks certain some have not.
