In our G2 cover story, Whatever happened to the American left?, February 11, we said "Key figures in the Not in Our Name statement condemning war, which has attracted thousands of signatures, including those of Susan Sarandon, Gloria Steinem, Gore Vidal, Alice Walker and Kurt Vonnegut, are members of the Revolutionary Communist party." To be absolutely clear: we meant to say that key figures involved in drafting the statement are in the Revolutionary Communist party. That does not mean that those who signed are members of the party or support its views or policies.
In an article Just blow into here please ..., pages 2 and 3, Office hours, February 10, we identified Eric Appleby with the Institute of Alcohol Studies. In fact, he is the chief executive of Alcohol Concern.
A photograph captioned "Clarissa Dickson Wright ... in her youth", page 10, G2, yesterday, in fact showed her late cookery partner (in the television programme Two Fat Ladies) Jennifer Paterson. The error came from the agency supplying the picture.
It was incorrect to refer to Grenada at the time of the US invasion as "the British sovereign territory", a column, page 5, G2, February 12. Grenada won independence from the UK in 1974 but retained the Queen as head of state, in common with a number of other independent Commonwealth countries.
In the same column we referred to "Republican senator Pete King". He is not a senator. He is a congressman, from Long Island, New York.
Nicholas Hawksmoor and John James were not commissioners under Queen Anne's Act of 1711 for the building of new churches (Invasion of the bodysnatchers, page 12, Architecture, G2, February 10). They were the joint salaried surveyors to the commission.
