Sean Connery fans petition to rename Edinburgh airport in his honour
Change.org petition that the James Bond actor deserves the honour, following his death at the age of 90 last week (October 31).Andrew Morton, who created the petition, said: “Liverpool has John Lennon airport, Belfast has George Best airport and with the death of one of her most famous sons Edinburgh should have a Sir Sean Connery airport.”At the time of writing, almost 1,500 people have signed in favour of the renaming. Representatives from Edinburgh have not yet commented on the petition.Last weekend, Sean Connery’s wife, French-Morran artist Micheline Roquebrune, revealed that the actor had been battling dementia before his death.“It was no life for him,” she said.
