More than 40,000 people have signed a petition to stop the Bayeux tapestry from being loaned by France to the British Museum in London.
Art historian Didier Rykner launched the petition on the platform Change.org after French President Emmanuel Macron offered to loan the tapestry as part of an art exchange during a trip to London in July. But Rykner is concerned that the movement could damage the Medieval relic.
