Lord Monckton Says Queen Should Not Intervene in Global Warming

Paul Fraleigh
Of the many stories about the Copenhagen climate change conference, there is one which, although having gotten very little play so far, says a lot about the powers behind the global warming hoax, and that is the one about the Queen.

The Queen, as we've all been told, is a quaint figurehead with no real power, right? Wrong. Queen Elizabeth II has significant power, and this was used during the Commonwealth conference in Trinidad and Tobago in late November when she urged the 53 member Commonwealth to take a united stand against global warming at the upcoming Copenhagen conference on climate. The Queen is a constitutional monarch and is not allowed to intervene in politics, which she most certainly did.

However, this has not gone unnoticed. Lord Monckton, when asked about this in Berlin on December 4, replied, "This is the first time that her Majesty has spoken out of turn and against her constitutional requirement not to intervene into politics since she took the throne. This is a very sad day. . . . [S]he had better not ever say anything of that character again in one direction or another. That is not her place as a constitutional monarch. And she must remember that, or she will lose our loyalty, and then she will lose the throne."

Lord Monckton has a rather interesting family history. His grandfather was the one who arranged the abdication of Edward VIII in 1936. Lord Monckton then, is someone not be taken lightly.

Perhaps there is a tinge of desperation in the Queen's stepping out of line. Not only has "Climategate" done a lot of damage to the myth of global warming, but the very Commonwealth itself is on shaky grounds, not only with India saying it will not accept legally binding emissions cuts at Copenhagen and coordinating a joint strategy with China in this regard, but the Australian senate voting down the Emissions Trading Scheme on December 2, an Australian version of "cap and trade," is a big blow the integrity of the Commonwealth's stand at Copenhagen.

The Queen's going beyond her limitations certainly provides an interesting glimpse into the state of affairs of the powers and principalities behind the global warming hoax. But with the opposition against the hoax growing, one might also wonder also whether or not the Queen has overplayed her hand.
