Looks like our favourite fabulist (or someone who writes and thinks exactly like him) is busy editing the Wikipedia page on Christopher Monckton. William Connolley (or "failed Green Party candidate in the pay of a convicted internet-gaming fraudster and money-launderer") has the details.

c.f. from a little over a year ago, Did Lord Monckton fabricate a claim on his Wikipedia page?

2 Barry,
Note that Lord Munchkin always folds when pressed. This incorrigible liar (or delusionist- how to tell?) is full of bluster and threats of legal action until his bluff is called.
Still, he's a star in the deniosphere, which tells us something. ;)

I always enjoy a re-read of http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2007/may/06/observerreview.climatechange whenever Discount Monckton pops up from behind the parapet.

"Not being a Freemason"
i'm going to find this phrase very useful in the future.
