Barclays Pays Settlement for Closing Christian Group’s Bank Account.
National Pulse ^ | 6/28/23 | Jake Welch

Barclays Bank – one of the top 20 in the world – has paid more than $25,000 in compensation to Dr. Mike Davidson, an executive of a Christian trust, after arbitrarily closing the charity’s bank accounts due to pressure from LGBTQ+ activists. Activists claimed the Core Issues Trust and the International Federation for Therapeutic and Counseling Choice were pushing “conversion therapy” onto people who voluntarily seek to change their sexual preferences or gender identities. Barclays – a leading sponsor of London’s gay pride parade – succumbed to the pressure and sent a letter to Davidson, notifying him of the bank’s decision to close their accounts. Meanwhile, Davidson received hundreds of calls and messages from strangers telling him that he and the trust’s staff would be “raped and killed” amongst other threats.

The left is evil! More and more evidence is shown each day showing that they are truly evil!

They claim to be the party of "inclusion" while at the same time they exclude those that disagree with them politically or culturally.

There should have been a few zeroes added to that $25,000.

$25,000

If the roles had been reversed, it would have been $25 million.

25k peanuts, hardly worth the suit or reporting.

This is catnip.

Money penalties are child's play for the leftists. They don't even come close to the amount of damage they inflict on others, let alone the scare tactics for the future.

Give me liberty, or ... never mind. As my tagline has stated since January 2021, no one has my back except maybe only the leftists, and that's to stab me there.

Remember when the gang of "live and let live" was lecturing us about "doesn't affect you?" Yeah, wasn't too long ago.

How slippery and steep that slope is.

“....no one has my back except maybe only the leftists, and that’s to stab me there.”


Isn’t that the truth? Our GOP representatives are playing tiddly-winks as the left is throwing bombs at us non-stop. The GOP will stop long enough to produce a “strongly worded letter” which results in nothing and everyone meets at the evening’s cocktail party to discuss their investments or divorces.

One look at that so called settlement, I knew this couldn’t have happened in this country.
Punitive Damages would be very much in order.
Most people are raised to presume one could trust a Bank to do what’s right, or at least prudent.

That’s an example of the love and tolerance of the left.

In labeling others *haters* they are simply projecting.
