Left-wing news site The Canary said it is closing indefinitely after 11 years, blaming bank blocks and disputes with ex-staff for making operations unsustainable. Founded in 2015 in the Corbyn era, it reported Lloyds and Metro Bank freezing funds and late pay. Journalists told the Guardian £2m of fresh investment was mismanaged. Managers say permanent staff are paid and promise a fuller account this week.
