Since the government sold its remaining stake in NatWest six months ago, shareholders have done well: the share price is near a record high, up 15% since full privatisation, and the bank posted £5.8bn in pre-tax profits for the first three quarters of 2025. But workers are faring less well.

You are all one divorce, one accident, one mortgage /rent payment default, one death , one unplanned set of circumstances from seeking support that could lead to you needing welfare support . Your chapters are not yet written.
