    It's always going to be a limited discussion when one or both sides aim to win, rather than discuss.

    I can totally relate to the comments about other wars. I have family in various branches of the military that hold similar views, but they find ways to reconcile what they do, with the often dubious reasons behind it. Pretty much they're in it with mates and countrymen, rather than Governments and crooks.

    Ukraine is one example of that. However it came about, it has, and not fighting dsimply is not an option for those in Ukraine, and they are coming out of this with a lot of respect which will (hopefully) serve them well for the future.

    It'll be even closer to a shorter border if Russia take over Ukraine.

    Interesting, I'd not long seen this on the Spurs board.

    The bank has set limits, dependent on how it is set up, from £1M - £3M minimum.

    I wondered if a periodic check had been done on him, and something iffy linked to him directly or indirectly. Afterall a PEP is always a risk, it would certainly explain the allegation other banks refused him - well they would, no one is going to touch you with a barge pole if some dodgy connections or transactions have been found. Not saying there has but Farage needs to stop pissing about and just tell the fooking truth for a change.

    I have. The Queen banks there. They only have one branch, on The Strand.

    Forty odd years ago, I was selling second hand Levi’s off a stall in Covent Garden. This scruffy punk bird bought two pairs, asked for a discount, then asked to pay by cheque. Pulled out a Coutts Bank cheque book.

    V. nice arse iirc

    There is that but I think that's the idea, they would have to remain neutral & act as a buffer .

    The whole situation is ****ed , I would much rather the Yanks didn't meddle with regime change & left them to it.

    I would also prefer it if the UK didn't keep it going by sending our money & weapons .

    It won't be Washington getting nuked first it will be London if it kicks off.

    And I certainly wouldn't send my sons to fight for Zelenskyy.

    This wouldn't have happened under Trump .

    If Nigel is just being a nob because his posh bank changed the terms & conditions & has a minimum balance limit now then that's gay.

    He said that Nat West offered him a regular current account after he went public but until then multiple banks refused him a business account.

    Unless he's been investigated or charged with financial irregularities it does appear as if he's being made an escape goat for masterminding Brexit.

    A conspiracy of notoriously woke, left-wing bankers nobbled poor Nige.
