Simplistic nonsense on immigration

IT incensed me to read Richard Ashton's letter headlined 'Asylum seekers don't have right of residence' (Irish Examiner, January 11).

This was not because of the opinion expressed but because of the amount of inaccuracy and simplistic nonsense dressed up as fact and considered opinion.

It amazes me that the loudest voices against immigration and asylum seekers are those who are least affected (and clearly the most ill-informed).
