Nigel Farage has blasted the NatWest boss after he defended the legal review into Dame Alison Rose.
Sir Howard Davies faced questions in an interview with the BBC about the fallout of the debunking saga where Nigel Farage revealed Coutts was planning to close his account for what he believed to be because of ‘his political views’.
The bank’s former chief executive Dame Alison Rose resigned after she admitted she had spoken to a journalist about Mr Farage’s relationship with Coutts.
Sir Howard said: “I continue to say that the judgment that we made at the time was a reasonable one.
“At the time what we also said was that we wanted an independent legal review, which we commissioned, to be able to satisfy ourselves what was said and what was not, because it was not remotely clear at the time.”
