  "An earlier version of this article mistakenly said that Bishop of Edinburgh is the most senior post in the Church of Scotland. In fact the Church of Scotland has no Bishops. The Bishop of Edinburgh is a post in the Scottish Episcopal Church, which is not linked to the Church of Scotland, except by the fact that they both like the Bible quite a lot. And Jesus. And God, obviously This has now been corrected. With thanks to the Media Relations Team of the church of Scotland, who are very nice." LMAO

I've known Loz for years, and he's a good bloke who cares about the right things. If we had a decent electoral system (and if I was in his constituency rather than the one next door) he'd have a high preference from me.

As it is, though, I'll be campaigning for Marc Ramsbottom, because he has a chance of winning as well as also being a very good candidate. Just a shame that our ludicrously adversarial system means a vote for one has to be a vote against the other :-/

The Church of Scotland are, insofar as I can tell, a fountain of loveliness. Except for their opposition to marriage equality, which lots of them seem to be very embarassed about.
