Insurance firm denies service to UK figure over ‘political views’
'God help us all'
Swiss insurance firm Swiss Re denied a business loan to politician Richard Tice over his political views, a report said Monday.
Tice applied for the loan last year, but a recently disclosed financial document shows the company denied Tice for being a “reputational risk” citing his leadership of the Right-leaning party Reform UK.
“I’m a man who’s made money, brought in investment and created jobs in this country. If that’s how they think of people who are successful businessmen then God help us all,” said Tice, who blamed “wokeness” for Swiss Re’s decision.
