In a six-minute video on Twitter, Mr Farage says he can no longer get a bank account. How true could his claims be?

That moment when you are walking down the street and you accidentally tread in a steaming pile of irony.

    He denies this but hasn’t sued the person making the allegation

    Setting aside the issue of whether-or-not he has received money, I don’t think that it’s a great idea to make the expected norm for someone to sue someone else if they’re innocent of something that someone claims that they did. Kind of results in everyone running around with lawyers on hair-trigger.

      Between normal people, or even minor celebrities, I would absolutely agree. But Farage is a notable entity in politics and journalism, one would hope that being accused of corruption, bribery, and treason would be ruinous for such a career. That is absolutely the sort of thing you would sue over, if you believed you had a good chance at winning.
