## Caption

Billionaire Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been criticised by Sir Keir Starmer and others for saying the UK had been “colonised by immigrants”.
 
The use of the term colonised in the interview with Sky News on Wednesday was followed by an apology from the Ineos boss if his “choice of language has offended some people”.
 
BBC Verify has been examining some of the claims he made on immigration, benefits and energy.
