//The people either speak up and nip things in the bud, or they sleepwalk into a more and more controlled existence. There are more than enough reports of various global power groups pushing for these type of changes worldwide to start to get concerned at compliant governments and politicians asking, "How high ?". Getting them to oppose it publicly can only be a good thing.//

The Government cannot access your financial records.
And even if we were to return to a cash-based society, the government could track you by various other means as detailed previously.
The petition states this:
I call on the Government to introduce legislation to protect the status of cash as legal tender and as a widely accepted means of payment in the UK until at least 2050.
There is no move to stop cash being legal tender. Unless the petition is calling for all businesses to accept cash - and that's unacceptable. If it's inappropriate for a business to accept cash, then so be it. If you forced bricks and mortar businesses into this cash model but didn't do the same for online retailers - you'd be adding unfair cost into the market.
You wrote:
As the video mentions, if you get refused access to your wealth because it's just in data form, then with your virtual wealth unavailable you have nothing left to fall back on. How big an incentive for compliance is that ?
What video????
Besides - if you want to get your cash out of a bank and have it in paper form right now, you can.

The video (or now videos since they discuss it in more than one) from GB News on YouTube.
I think some folk tend to be far too trusting on government and big business than is good for society, especially given past experiences of what is being pushed on society whether they approve or not. Petitions such as this give voice to genuine corncern.

Oh, not that this thread is supposed to be about Nigel (which other threads cover), but about the general push to do away with cash, that some seem to have missed; but his bank issues have naturally been mentioned here as example, and I've just come across his rebuttal of things claimed. Worth a look if you want the other side from the bank/MSM view.

DT, Mr Farage was not offered a Nat West account until he kicked off in the press.
And besides, why is this all about him. There are an awful lot of people being denied accounts, having them closed and in many of those cases not being able to get their money.
Banks should not have this, if an account is needed for investigation it should be frozen dn within 24 hours a court order to keep it closed and Police involvement.
Whilst many of you are thinking it funny Mr Farage has been shut up, what about when group think changes and it is your left wing ideas being persecuted. Will that be funny and acceptable?

Thank you O_G I've signed. I'll also spread this information around. Everyone I know feels very strongly that if people become reliant totally on electronic systems it will lead to governmental control.
Imagine - someone buys more wine in a week that the official guidelines allow so their card is altered to not accept alcohol purchases. It's not difficult to see how people could be controlled and subjugated.
