Sir, - I fear that, in your report of January 14th on the disrupted initial meeting of the Immigration Control Platform in Ennis, The Irish Times seems to have made an uncharacteristic error in respect of the name of one of the organisations involved. Surely the people who invaded a peaceful meeting to which they were not invited with the intention of disrupting it, who stood in a line between the speakers and the audience in order to prevent views with which they disagreed being expressed, who photographed those attending (intimidating in itself), and who refused to leave the room when requested to do so by representatives of Amnesty International and the Irish Refugee Council - surely these cannot have been representatives of Anti-Fascist Action? - Yours, etc.,
