Reburial of Richard III

Sir, – Dr Gerald Morgan (March 25th) has noted that the queen of England will be absent from Leicester Cathedral for the ceremony of reburial for Richard III.

I’m surprised that Charlie Flanagan has not issued her an invitation. – Yours, etc,

PATRICIA O’RIORDAN,

Sir, – The letter on the reburial of Richard III mystifies me. What in the name of goodness has the death and reburial of an obscure English king got to do with Ireland? Was the letter sent to the wrong Times newspaper perhaps? – Yours, etc,
