- David Beamish – A letter to Viscount Monckton of Brenchley from the Clerk of the Parliaments – Parliament UK – Published online: 18/07/2011 – Clerk of the Parliaments – http://www.parliament.uk/business/news/2011/july/letter-to-viscount-monckton/
“You are not and have never been a member of the House of Lords. Your assertion that you are a member, but without the right to sit or vote, is a contradiction in terms. No one denies that you are, by virtue of your letters patent, a peer. That is an entirely separate issue to membership of the House. This is borne out by the recent judgement in Baron Mereworth v Ministry of Justice (Crown Office) … I must therefore again ask that you desist from claiming to be a Member of the House of Lords, either directly or by implication, and also that you desist from claiming to be a Member ‘without the right to sit or vote’.” - Leo Hickman – Climate sceptic Lord Monckton told he’s not member of House of Lords – The Guardian -18/07/2011 – http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2011/jul/18/climate-monckton-member-house-lords
“Buckingham Palace was drawn into the dispute when it was revealed that Pownall had sought advice from the Lord Chamberlain, a key officer in the royal household, on the potential misuse of the portcullis emblem due to it being the property of the Queen. The Buckingham Palace website states that any misuse of the emblem is prohibited by the Trade Marks Act 1994, meaning Monckton could potentially be liable for fines and a six-month prison term if the palace pursues the matter and successfully prosecutes him.” - The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley (2008) – More in Sorrow than in Anger: Open letter from The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley to Senator John McCain about Climate Science and Policy – The Science and Public Policy Institute – Publicada en The American Thinker, Octubre 2008 – http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/images/stories/papers/reprint/Letter_to_McCain.pdf
“Lord Monckton, UK — Christopher, Third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley … His contribution to the IPCC’s Fourth Assessment Report in 2007 – the correction of a table inserted by IPCC bureaucrats that had overstated tenfold the observed contribution of the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets to sea-level rise – earned him the status of Nobel Peace Laureate.” - Christopher Monckton of Brenchley – Margaret Thatcher: the world’s first climate realist – Watts Up With That? – Published online: 16/06/2010 – – http://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/06/16/margaret-thatcher-the-world%E2%80%99s-first-climate-realist/
“It was I who – on the prime minister’s behalf – kept a weather eye on the official science advisers to the government, from the chief scientific adviser downward.” - Margaret Thatcher (1995) – The Downing Street Years – HarperCollins – ISBN-13: 978-0006383215, 928 págs.

“Margaret Thatcher: Today [15/05/1990], with the publication of the report of the IPCC, we have an authoritative early-warning system: an agreed assessment from some three hundred of the world leading scientists on what is happening to the world’s climate. They confirm that greenhouse gases are increasing substantially as a result of men’s activities, that this will warm the Earth surface with serious consequences at all … There would surely be a great migration of population away from areas of the world liable to flooding, and from areas of declining rainfall and therefore of spreading desert. Those people will be crying out not for oil wells but for water.” - Bob Ward (2010) – Thatcher becomes latest recruit in Monckton’s climate sceptic campaign – The Guardian, 22/06/2010 – http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2010/jun/22/thatcher-climate-sceptic-monckton
“The former prime minister’s book draws heavily on such leaflets produced by US lobby groups, instead of scientific papers, and she refers only briefly to the work of the IPCC, which she was instrumental in bringing about, dismissing its 2001 report as «alarmist». But Lady Thatcher reveals her true concerns by claiming that «the new dogma about climate change has swept through the left-of-centre governing classes», and warning that the international effort to tackle climate change «provides a marvellous excuse for worldwide, supra-national socialism.” - Alice-Azania Jarvis – The 5-Minute Interview: Christopher Monckton, Policy adviser, journalist, inventor – The Independent – Published online: 24/08/2007 – – http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/the-5minute-interview-christopher-monckton-policy-adviser-journalist-inventor-462818.html
“I’m bad at doing what I’m told. I’m a born free-thinker … [If I were a politician] I would leave the European Union, close down 90 per cent of government services and shift power away from the atheistic, humanistic government and into the hands of families and individuals.” - Christopher Monckton – AIDS: A British View – The American Spectator – Published online: 01/01/1987 – – http://search.opinionarchives.com/AmerSpec_Web/DigitalArchive.aspx?panes=1&aid=02001029_1
“There is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month … all those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently.” - Christopher Monckton – Hitler Youth in Denmark – again – The Science and Public Policy Institute – Published online: 11/12/2009 – – http://sppiblog.org/news/hitler-youth-in-denmark-again
“One of the Fascists, distracted as I had intended, began trying to offer a commentary on what I was saying. Using my elbow, I kept her away from the microphones and continued talking. Eventually, the squad marched out of the room and rapidly dispersed before the police could round them up.” - Europa Press – Un ex asesor de Thatcher felicita a Aznar por decir ‘la verdad’ del cambio climático – El Mundo, 22/10/2008 – http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2008/11/12/espana/1226516905.html
“Christopher W. Monckton, analista y ex asesor de la primer ministro británica Margaret Thatcher, le ha felicitad por su valentía» para decir «la verdad». El analista asegura que «no se está diciendo la verdad» sobre el calentamiento global porque «es un hecho» que en los últimos siete años, lejos de que las temperaturas estén incrementándose, «el clima se está enfriando a escala global». Este Lord británico subrayó en entrevista con Europa Press que entre 2000 y 2008 las temperaturas descendieron «alrededor de un tercio de grado centígrado» lo que supone «la mayor reducción en tan poco espacio de tiempo desde 1980».” - Christopher Monckton of Brenchley – Durban: what the media are not telling you – Watts Up With That?, 09/12/2011 – http://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/12/09/durban-what-the-media-are-not-telling-you/
“The profiteering UN bureaucrats here think otherwise. Their plans to establish a world government paid for by the West on the pretext of dealing with the non-problem of «global warming» are now well in hand.” - Christopher: A man of many talents – UK Independence Party – Published online: 04/06/2010 – – http://www.ukip.org/content/latest-news/1675-christopher-a-man-of-many-talents

“How can such misrepresentations be made without public recourse? I cannot answer that. I can say that scientists are listening and though our voices are small, we will use them to hold people like Monckton and others to account for their public claims. The science community is slowly learning that if we don’t perform this service, no one will.” - John Abraham – Abraham reply to Monckton – Skeptical Science, 06/06/2010 – http://www.skepticalscience.com/Abraham-reply-to-Monckton.html
“Finally, I would like to point out the reason for the delay between your October, 2009 presentation until my reply, it was caused by my desire to present a thoughtful, thorough reply. You have dealt with a small number of very peripheral issues. There remain very severe errors with your presentation that are yet unanswered. If you have corrected the many errors which I have disclosed, please accept my apologies.” - Correspondence between The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley and St. Thomas’ University – 28/06/2010 – http://jonova.s3.amazonaws.com/monckton/warm-abraham-correspondence.doc
“The University of St Thomas respects your right to disagree with Professor Abraham, just as the University respects Professor Abraham’s right to disagree with you. What we object to are your personal attacks against Father Dease, and Professor Abraham, your inflammatory language, and your decision to disparage Professor Abraham Father Dease and The University of St Thomas.” - Lord Christopher Walter Monckton, 3rd Viscount Monckton of Brenchley – Testimony of The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley – Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming, U.S. House of Representatives – Published online: 06/05/2010 – – http://globalwarming.house.gov/files/HRG/050510climateScience/monckton.pdf

“But it must be the 20th such threat I have seen him make. He throws threats of libel around like confetti, reported me to the Press Complaints Commission (his complaint was not upheld(8)) and claims to have initiated disciplinary proceedings against another academic who criticised him (oddly, this didn’t materialise either(9)).” - Lois Careaga – Lord Monckton emprenderá acciones legales contra el fraude del calentamiento global – Plaza Moyua, 18/12/2011 – http://plazamoyua.com/2011/12/18/lord-monckton-emprendera-acciones-legales-contra-el-fraude-del-calentamiento-global/
“Nuestro Lord favorito explica en primer lugar el concepto jurídico de fraude, que se aplica de forma similar en casi todas las legislaciones de nuestro entorno. Básicamente un engaño consciente que tiene como consecuencia la ganancia de un bien para el defraudador, o la pérdida de un bien para el defraudado. Y se ha propuesto mostrar el fraude que supone la vaina del calentamiento global antropogénico. Pero hacerlo legalmente, mediante denuncias concretas.” - Bryan Walsh – Climategate 2: A Weak Sequel – Time – Published online: 23/11/2011 – – http://ecocentric.blogs.time.com/2011/11/23/climategate-2-a-weak-sequel/
“Two: the good constables of Norfolk, who have been investing at the hack at East Anglia, are in no danger of giving Sherlock Holmes a run for his money. Seriously, it’s been two years since the original Climategate, and as Richard Black points out in the BBC, they’ve apparently got bupkis, or whatever the British equivalent of that would be. And the investigation doesn’t exactly seem to be on the frontburner—as Black writes, the police have spent all of $8,843 on the investigation.” - Tallbloke towers raided: many computers taken – Tallbloke’s Talkshop – Published online: 14/12/2011 – http://tallbloke.wordpress.com/2011/12/14/tallbloke-towers-raided-many-computers-taken/

“Here is how you can help. If you consider any specific aspect of “global warming” science to contain an element of fraud as defined and illustrated here, then please – in strictest confidence – get in touch and let me have as much detail as possible. Be specific. Name names. Give details. If you can, supply or point me to backup evidence. Since the information you will be supplying to me is in contemplation of criminal proceedings, it is privileged and no libel suit would succeed even in the unlikely event that the perpetrators discovered you had contacted me. Your details will be kept confidential, and will not appear in the report or be passed to any authorities. Don’t be coy.”
