Nigel Farage has not just blown the bloody doors off Coutts bank but has exposed a leftist plot threatening Britain

NIGEL FARAGE has not just blown the bloody doors off Coutts bank and its Stasi-style spying.

He has exposed a conspiracy to shift this country permanently to the left — through Whitehall, the police, town halls, the BBC and the boardrooms of Britain.

Coutts’ dossier of lies, cover-ups and officially sanctioned surveillance provide a devastating glimpse of the Brussels-loving, Brexit-hating, woke-worshipping Blob at work.

Coutts, favoured by the very rich, from Mafia crooks to the King of England, has been caught with its pants down, in flagrante.

It is not just Farage who has been singled out for expulsion from woke society.

Tens of thousands more have found their banking lifeline cut off for no reason.

But they may actually be victims of another shadowy organisation, known as The Octopus, set up in the Blair era, whose tentacles reach into every nook and cranny of our daily lives.

Its real name is Common Purpose.

You have almost certainly never heard of it.

But it has grown in two decades from a small group of influencers under middle-class networker Julia Middleton into a global multimillion pound charity with leverage in the highest places.

In 1988, she spelled out how to do it.

“A small, committed and co-ordinated group of people producing pressure from the outside,” she said.

“Two or three determined fifth columnists on the inside. And the stamina from both groups to keep on and on and on putting them on the agenda until they eventually had to be discussed.”

Even she might be surprised how successful these plans would prove.

Inaccurate claims

CP’s luminaries include ex-Met boss Cressida Dick, ex-EU Commissioner Chris Patten, council bosses and top civil service mandarins who pay £5,000-plus for lessons on Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, the issue at the heart of the Coutts row with Farage.

Its clients may also include Coutts itself, just as its relation, the Royal Bank of Scotland, was before being bailed out by the Goverment in 2008.

The Sun last week asked Coutts if any senior figures — including chief executive Dame Alison Rose — have attended such courses.

So far, no response.

The same question could be put to Andrew Bailey, governor of the Bank of England, which also designated EDI as its primary goal — apparently ahead of cutting inflation.

The BBC is certainly a supporter.

During his time at the Beeb, ITV’s political editor Robert Peston recalls a CP course which ended “with a collective wail about the irresponsibility and excessive power of the media”.

Talking of irresponsible media, Alison Rose is the alleged source of inaccurate claims (aka “lies”) peddled by the BBC’s Simon Jack that Farage did not have enough cash to justify his Coutts account.

Both Rose and Jack now risk losing their jobs.

Common Purpose ranges far wider than Brexit-bashing, Gay Pride, trans issues and Net Zero.

It is closely linked with anti-press hypocrites Hacked Off, who want newspapers regulated by the state.

Political censorship is also backed by another totalitarian group, which pressures advertisers to withdraw business from media whose views they disagree with.

They’re the modern equivalent of book burners.

They bully advertising agencies into denying publicity for organisations deemed to be on the wrong side of the culture wars — such as The Sun, Daily Mail, Daily Express and GB News.

Interestingly, Sir Keir Starmer’s press-bashing Labour Party has had absolutely nothing to say about this scandal.

There is no evidence Common Purpose has acted illegally, although its secretive masonic nature raises disturbing concerns.

Rancid contempt

There is no such defence for Coutts bank or its scurrilous attempt to run Nigel Farage out of town for supporting Brexit — as did a majority of British voters.

It is only because they stupidly spelled out their plot against the ex-Ukip leader in an infantile 40-page dossier that all this became public knowledge.

In that sense, the bank has clumsily done us all a big favour — by revealing its rancid contempt not just for Farage but for millions of decent British people without a fortune to wave under their nose.

Common Purpose is a far bigger and much more worrying operation.

It swears its supporters to secrecy and deliberately flies beneath the radar.

Few people even in frontline politics know it exists.
