The regulator\u2019s first look at this, however, shows that it\u2019s not Brexity or other politics, but stroppy behaviour which might cause your bank to \u2018disengage\u2019 with you and close your account. I\u2019d contend that banks, whatever you may think of them, are still businesses, and so have the right to pick and choose with whom they deal, as should we at the other end of the financial services food chain.
