Saturday quiz
This week, I scored 7/10, thus again beating political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 6/10. I admit that two of my answers were educated guesses. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 5, and 9.

Outside some major ports and a few urban enclaves, well into the 1960s if not 1970s. I know. I was there.
A few points: firstly, I have been saying for 10+ years that Britain should get closer to Russia in every way, thus —inter alia— preserving our energy security at affordable price levels.
Secondly, Russia in 2021 is not the Soviet Union. It has no hostile ideology or any “take over the world” gameplan. In fact, that was not really, after 1945, or 1953 (death of Stalin), or from the 1970s, the intention of even the Soviet leadership, despite the superpower rivalry that existed.
Thirdly. Britain needs energy whatever. Russia can provide it.
I make no apology for repeating the basic reasons for the propaganda onslaught: the Great Replacement; the Great Reset; the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan; 2022-2055 (being the era that will soon replace that of 1989-2022).

Afternoon music
That is the folk singer, Shusha, as in Shusha Guppy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shusha_Guppy]. I have, or used to have, one of her CDs.
Shusha Guppy, now deceased, had a son, Darius Guppy [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Guppy], whose interesting memoir, Roll the Dice [https://www.amazon.co.uk/Roll-Dice-True-Money-Betrayal/dp/1857821599] I reviewed on Amazon (sadly, a pack of Jews pressured Amazon to remove my reviews several years ago, despite my being at the time one of the top reviewers —as chosen by readers—on the site; as a result, my reviews are not now available to the public. Jews destroying freedom of expression…it’s what they do).
I met Darius Guppy once, in early 2017, when he attended the now-defunct London Forum run by Jez Turner [Jeremy Bedford-Turner, later persecuted and prosecuted by Jewish pressure groups, and imprisoned].
Darius Guppy (who may have been aware that I had reviewed his book) approached me after I had given my talk about freedom of expression (ironically, the video of my talk is itself censored online…); we spoke briefly. He seemed a pleasant fellow. I understand that he now lives near Cape Town. I would not be surprised to discover that his adventurous life continues to be adventurous.
Strangely enough, I recall dining with some Persians in London, an elderly lady, her two sons, and a few other people, the family being exiles (the father of the men and husband of the lady had been executed by the Ayatollah’s regime soon after the fall of the Shah). Guppy was in the news at the time (early 1990s). The lady had known Shusha Guppy, and recalled Darius Guppy when young as “a nice young boy“. He certainly seemed, on meeting him, likeable, on the face of it.

Hitchens, despite having been a journalist —a real one, unlike the majority calling themselves such— for decades, still seems (probably only seems) surprised at the gap between actual reality and a propaganda message saying something else. cf. “racial equality” and “anti-sexism” campaigns etc.
Sometimes I wonder which is more deluded: the general public, lapping up the lies put out by the System drones on the msm, or the System drones themselves.
That particularly applies to those groups (eg the blacks generally) proven to be genetically-predisposed —far more than Europeans— to certain types of mental illness (eg schizophrenia).
Medical query
I am no medic, and so was surprised to hear this morning that the widespread and debilitating condition ME is now classified as, or as part of, or as similar to “Long Covid”. Is that true? Not an area where I know a lot about the subject.
