Nigel Farage has claimed that an apology from the chief executive of NatWest Group is only "a start", as he called for a “wholesale review” of the UK’s banking industry amid a political furore over the closure of bank accounts and freedom of speech.
Dame Alison Rose apologised to the former Ukip and Brexit Party leader on Thursday for "deeply inappropriate comments" made about him in official papers.
It comes after private bank Coutts, owned by NatWest Group, suddenly closed Mr Farage’s account, with him claiming it was because of his political views.

Anti-immigration protesters and pro-migrant groups clashed in London and Manchester, with police making multiple arrests amid rising tensions. Demonstrators outside a London hotel housing asylum seekers faced counter-protesters carrying messages of solidarity such as “You are valued, wanted, and welcome.” Far-right groups including Patriots of Britain and Britain First rallied against migrant accommodation, while anti-racism activists, joined by political figures like Jeremy Corbyn, outnumbered them. Police reported breaches of Public Order conditions, scuffles, and arrests, as the immigration debate intensifies and Nigel Farage’s rhetoric draws renewed scrutiny.
