Laurence Fox tries to withdraw money from his bank account on Twitter and hilarity ensues

Is two fives and a ten ok?

Laurence Fox has informed Barclays that he wishes to drain his account in a bizarre social media post.

The controversial political activist took to Twitter to inform the bank of his decision, provoking a hilarious response.

Banks have been thrust into the spotlight after Nigel Farage revealed that his own bank account has been closed.

The former Brexit Party leader said the unnamed banking group, which he has been with since 1980, told him it was a commercial decision.

However, Farage said on Twitter this amounted to “serious political persecution”, suggesting the decision was made due to his involvement in the 2016 European Union referendum.

Jacob Rees-Mogg also featured Dr Mike Davidson from Christian charity Core Issues Trust on his show who claimed Barclays had closed their account.

'I phoned Barclays, asked them why, and they said “we’re not obliged to give you a reason”.'

It prompted Fox to spark a run on the banks.

But judging by this reaction, it could be a bit of a damp squib!

Dear Barclays, I've banked with you since I was 11 yrs old (39 yrs then) & both my Mum & step dad worked for you. I'm surprised it's taken you this long to upset this idiot but congratulations on finally achieving it! 😂 pic.twitter.com/0rjdgt5BpP

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
