The mafia bosses clearly don’t go on the telly annoying other wealthy customers. Farage is reputational damage to Coutts and I bet they profoundly regret ever having anything to do with him. Very much less so the mafia bosses, I’m sure.
I think Coutts is all about cultivating the Right Sort of customers. “The Queen’s bankers.” Upper Class.
Farage was rather gauche and has become clearly less wealthy than when he lived off the EU, whereupon he’s lost any redeeming features whatsoever to Coutts.
It’s clearly OK for Coutts customers to be a bit of an embarrassment but wealthy, or to be unmistakably of high pedigree but fallen on a bit of a rough patch recently, but if you’re a beer-swilling affectation-loving pugnacious racist with no great wealth, you’re just absolutely the Wrong Sort and Coutts want nothing to do with you whatsoever.
It’s 100% about reputation. Be rich or be posh, preferably both. Coutts doesn’t want you in its world if you’re neither.
Farage hated being chucked out because it represented his rejection by the establishment, and he’s a bit sensitive when it comes to being rejected.
He is taking revenge on the same territory: reputation, and using his favourite weapon: the fears and insecurities of the Conservative Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which allows him to dictate British policy depute having lost something like seven elections trying to get into Parliament.
Nigel Farage didn’t align with Coutts “values”, but obviously the mafia bosses they have on their books do. 🤷

Did anyone know he had a Coutts account before they kicked him out though?
Can’t do reputational damage if no one knows about it, surely?
