Free expression is a cornerstone of democracy and should be made possible for everyone. This was also emphasized by Rishi Sunak, finance minister of Great Britain, in a tweet of July 19, 2023. He made it clear that nobody should be prevented from expressing his political views freely.

Against the prominent British politician Nigel Farage has caused a stir. The Interior Minister Suella Braverman accused Couts bank of acting with a "politically biased dogma" by discriminating against Farage. Alison Rose, CEO of the Natwest Group, parent company of Couts, has now apologized for the "deeply inappropriate" comments and agreed to reopen the account of Farage.

According to Farage, discrimination was political reasons. As a former chairman of the parties Reform UK and UK Independence Party (UKIP), Farage is a well -known supporter of cryptocurrencies. On December 3, 2020, he described Bitcoin as a "ultimate anti-lockdown investment" and made fun of the British pound.

Farage even appeared as a speaker at a Bitcoin conference in Amsterdam in 2022. In an interview with CoinTelegraph, he praised Bitcoin for his properties such as anti-inflation and unchangeable compared to the traditional banking system.

Alison Rose's apology emphasized that it was not in the company's policy to disadvantage customers because of their political or personal views. This is another statement on the importance of freedom of expression in our democracy. It remains to be hoped that this incident serves to prevent such discrimination and to raise awareness of the importance of freedom of expression.
