Why isn't it, they don't support fox hunting, they close their accounts. When did banks think they can take on the mantle of being moral arbitors?

Every bank ?

Banks aren't allowed free speech? We'll add free speech denier to the list then.

Banks should be classed as utility open to all law abiding citizens.
Hunt has hinted as such we'll see how that pans out.

Every bank ?

Banks above their station think they have the right to.

They are. There is legislation in place to ensure that happens. Basic bank accounts are open to everyone.

Ok, put it this way. You are interviewing someone for a job, or whatever, and they admit they support slavery, bribery, no free speech or hunting. What would you do?

 

[gant]

They don't, unless again you have any examples?

You missed off Imho.

It's pretty simple you employ people who are law abiding.
Fox hunting is not outlawed in fact it's law abiding.
