Figure image
Leicester Tigers are backing a campaign to keep the remains of Richard III in the city.

The Leicester Mercury’s drive aims to enlist public support for an e-petition which calls for the king to be reinterred "with due dignity and respect in Leicester, where he was originally buried".

A rival e-petition calls for the former monarch’s to be reinterred at York Minster.
