According to the article at
http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/i...n-Caught Green-Handed Climategate Scandal.pdf
,
SPPI and Monckton are well know denialist bedfellows. His presentation
in March to the House Senate committee was funny for all the wrong
reasons. eg.

He is a great showman. Though his command of the facts is somewhat
lacking - either that or he has absolutely no personal integrity. A fair
proportion of what he says is easily proved wrong by fact checking.
It is odd that the US senators cannot distinguish fact from fiction. The
UK Science & Technology Select Committee are much more on the ball and
considerably less partisan in their approach. They also talk to real
experts rather than pretend ones from ultraright wing think tanks.
