- The Reform UK party leader was rejected for a loan from financial giant Swiss Re
Leading Brexit campaigner Richard Tice was ‘debanked’ because of his political views, a financial document reveals.
The Reform UK party leader had applied to financial giant Swiss Re for a business loan in April last year. But an internal report said his company Quidnet Capital was rejected as he was a ‘reputational risk’.
Explaining the ‘reason for decline’, it added that ‘the chief executive is Richard Tice, a former member of the European Parliament. He is currently leader of Reform UK’.
Mr Tice blamed ‘wokeness’, telling The Sun on Sunday: ‘I’m a man who’s made money, brought in investment and created jobs in this country.
‘If that’s how they think of people who are successful businessmen then God help us all.’
The Talk TV show host previously accused Metro Bank of shutting his account due to his views. Earlier this year fellow Brexiteer Nigel Farage was debanked by Coutts.
Swiss Re refused to comment.
