Jim Ratcliffe avoids FA charge after controversial comments

Manchester United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe will not face any action from the Football Association regarding his controversial remarks about immigration.

The FA reminded Ratcliffe of his responsibilities but decided not to take further action despite Prime Minister Keir Starmer labeling the comments "offensive."

The billionaire apologized, and United manager Michael Carrick later reaffirmed the club's commitment to equality and diversity.
