Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has sparked controversy by stating that the UK is being “colonised by immigrants” and calling for significant political changes to address immigration and welfare dependency. In an interview with Sky News, he described Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer as “maybe too nice” and praised Reform UK leader Nigel Farage as an “intelligent man” with “good intentions.” Ratcliffe, who acquired a minority stake in Manchester United in late 2023, has faced backlash from fans over operational changes, leading to protests against the club’s ownership.
