Epic Fail

lprent posted at the standard;

A Potty Peer making money off future misery.

He gets all worked up because Christopher, Viscount Monckton of Brenchley makes about $23,000 NZD per speaking engagement.

Which got me thinking, how much is Al Gore charging per day. Well I found this little gem;
Al Gore's $100 Million Makeover.

A l Gore is a funny guy. And, for his $175,000 speaking fee, he tells this story: after leaving the White House and heading back to Tennessee sans motorcade...

That's USD remember, that converted at today's rate is circa $238,000 NZD and that was in 2007.

Looking at that it appears Lord Monckton is just covering costs but if Lord Monckton is profiteering then what the hell is lprent's team up to?

Perhaps Lord Monckton hasn't got so much smoke and mirrors to cart around with him.
