A Scotsman nearly changed world history...

It’s a little known truth that a Scotsman almost derailed Christianity before it had even got off the ground. God arranged for Jesus to come up before Pontius Pilate accused of sedition and violent insurrection, as the plot required him to be crucified rather than stoned to death - as would have been the case for religious crimes against the Jewish state.
Jesus went along with crucifixion because, as he remarked at the time, ‘…at least the view’s better!’
But Pontius Pilate, after being incessantly harangued by Jesus’s court appointed lawyer, went outside the script and offered Jesus a hundred hours of community service instead, clearing dog shit off the pavement. It took a couple of bolts from the blue to get him to change his mind because, wouldn’t you know, Pontius was a Scotsman from Fortingall in Perthshire…

The EU and the REMAIN campaign...

...about the EU and whether the UK stays In or Out on the 23rd June – and I expect a late majority to emerge for leaving (the old want to leave and they vote – the young want to remain and they often don’t!) - the REMAIN campaign will have a lot to answer for whatever the result! 
Cameron & company have already hidden from the British public, many dictatorial Brussels decisions - such as the EU intentions to form a European army, controlled from Brussels …and recently I was drinking with a Belgium guy who claimed to be a friend of Juncker and he came out with the news that the top people in Brussels are deliberately delaying a secret edict, already made, where the UK would be forced to change over to drive on the right hand side of the road...! He said this was being concealed because it would likely to cause a surge in people voting OUT… and being Brussels, no doubt they would arrange it in stages; cars and motorcycles to change over to the right first – then lorries, buses and vans later…!
