Ratcliffe's own goal over 'apology' for UK migrants slur

Man United co-owner Jim Ratcliffe said sorry if immigration remarks ‘offended some people’. The billionaire businessman, who lives in tax-free Monaco, said Britain is being 'colonised by immigrants' and that immigration is 'costing too much money' due to people on benefits. Sir Jim Ratcliffe told Sky News that 'You can’t have an economy with 9 million people on benefits and huge levels of immigrants coming in'. Sir Keir Starmer had called on Sir Jim Ratcliffe, co-owner of Manchester United, to apologise for comments he had made regarding UK immigration. The prime minister condemned the remarks as 'offensive and wrong', asserting that Britain is a 'proud, tolerant and diverse country' and demanding an apology from Ratcliffe. Justice minister Jake Richards described Sir Jim's language as 'ugly' and 'frankly wrong', labelling him 'hypocritical' for criticising migration while living in the tax haven of Monaco. #JimRatcliffe #SirJimRatcliffe #INEOS #Colonised #Ratcliffe #immigration #manchesterunited #MUTD Full article: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/bu...
