A review of the film Foxtrot used a wholly inappropriate description when it referred to the character Jonathan Feldman as an “Israeli border guard with Aryan-German heritage”. The character is of German-Jewish heritage (And the rest, New Review, 3 March, page 29).
An article referred to “the 10 Ulster Unionists” when the intended reference was to the 10 MPs of the Democratic Unionist party. The Ulster Unionist party currently has no seats in the House of Commons (“May’s hopes rise as top Tory MPs soften opposition to Brexit deal”, News, 3 March, page 8).
