Monckton: "I was very bad – I pressed the button and made a short statement.”

British peer ejected from UN climate talks for denouncing protocol - Telegraph
[Monckton] has been banned for life from UN climate talks.

Speaking afterwards, he said he was acting on the "spur of the moment".

“I don't think it was my turn to talk, but the opportunity presented itself and I took it,” he said.

"I was very bad – I pressed the button and made a short statement.”

"I know it was bad of me, but I got some brief points across which the delegates probably didn't expect.

“They have now taken my badge, but it's not the end of the world.”

How often do MPs speak out of turn in Westminster? If we threw them all out the place would be empty!

The very fact that they threw him out for so minor an action shows that they are dead scared of any real debate on this issue. Go figure why that is.
