Keir Starmer demands Jim Ratcliffe apologises after Manchester United owner warns 'UK is being colonised by immigrants'

Sir Keir Starmer has demanded British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe apologises after the Manchester United owner warned the UK is being "colonised" by immigrants.

The Prime Minister turned on the 73-year-old owner of the chemicals group Ineos in a short post on social media.


Sir Keir said: "Offensive and wrong. Britain is a proud, tolerant and diverse country. Jim Ratcliffe should apologise."

Sir Jim, who backed Brexit in 2016, emerged as a surprise supporter of Sir Keir's Labour ahead of the 2024 General Election.
