Could you be 'de-banked' for being gender-critical?

I'm sure Nigel Farage has very few fans here. However, in the light of his bank, Coutts, closing his bank accounts due to his political beliefs, could this happen to gender-critical women too?

Farage has obtained documents from Coutts which make it clear that the bank gave him the boot because his views didn't align with their 'inclusive' purpose.

I wonder if GC women such as Posie Parker have had similar issues? Or if this is something that could happen? Believing in humans being a sexually dimorphic species is, as we all know, 'not inclusive'.

There was a recent thread about this, but I couldn't find it on a quick skim. Maybe NatWest closing a GC holders account.

My view is that as long as the money has not come from ill gotten gains then a bank should not be commenting on the morality of account holders.

More info from Telegraph https://archive.ph/vE5Ua:

Nigel Farage’s bank accounts were closed down after Coutts decided his views “do not align with our values”, documents obtained by the former Ukip leader show.

A reputational risk committee “exited” him after considering a dossier detailing Mr Farage’s comments about Brexit, his friendship with Donald Trump and his views on LGBT rights among many reasons he was not “compatible with Coutts”.
