Farr out on Monckton

We’re told repeatedly that Lord Monckton is no scientist and his arguments against global warming alarmism are nonsense.

So it’s very telling after having been grudgingly granted a debate at the National Press Club that no scientist or journalist or scientist or scientists have come forward as yet to demonstrate some fraud or foolish error in Monckton’s arguments.

None.

Nada.

Surrendering the moral high ground

Lord Monckton has embarrassed himself and damaged his cause by this offensive attack:

Although this week, like every week, I've said things like,

Global warming is the latest refuge of the closet totalitarian ... 
Sense a pattern here? A historical analogy?

and,

Notice how Maoist Arabia’s language is? Demonise doubters. Valorise the collective. Demand individual judgement be subservient to some “national” ideology.

in Monckton's case I want to be outraged. He should just talk about science.



UPDATE

MALCOLM TURNBULL: Monckton is a vaudeville artist. He has no credibility, politically or scientifically, particularly in The United Kingdom and he is a professional sensationalist. So he says these outrageous things in order to get into the press.

Turnbull misrepresents Monckton. I can find only one reference to an actual vaudeville performance from Monckton - at the Temple Theatre, Detroit, December 1, 1902:

Monologist and vocalist. He goes like a cyclone. It is a case of continuous laughter from his entrance to his exit.
