The Royal Society is only THE oldest societies in the world dedicated to knowledge.
Let me educate you:
Martin Rees(Lord Rees), current president of the Royal Society, was elevated to a life peerage, sitting as a crossbencher in the House of Lords in 2005.
Definition: Life Peerage - In the United Kingdom, life peers are appointed members of the Peerage whose titles may not be inherited. (Those whose titles are inheritable are known as hereditary peers.)
Therefore LORD Rees has EARNED that title, but let us not overlook his academic achievements:

Not only does he hold the honorary title of Astronomer Royal he has made important scientific contributions on how our universe works with regards to quasars and blackholes, CMBR, and galaxy formation.
So... you were saying? |
That's Lord Rees, who also has a PhD and says there is AGW.
This thread is about Lord Monckton, a hereditary peer who works as a business consultant and has a degree in journalism.
