Speaking as an immigrant out of Monaco, Sir Jim Ratcliffe told us this week that Britain has been “colonised”.
Except that Britain still writes its own laws, controls its own borders and governs its own migration system.
Almost as though he doesn’t have the foggiest what he’s talking about.

When Sir Jim Ratcliffe Plays the Colonised
As someone raised in a country shaped by British colonial rule, I know what domination looks like. Migration under UK law isn’t it.
