I hope he gets to have a public debate albeit he wont get one though. It is unfortunate about his timing close to Australia Day as people will be distracted by the celebrations and Lord Monckton will not even get a mention.
I have not seen this tour advertised in any mainstream media. edit. I looked a little harder and found some websites promoting the tour. In contrast to most print, radio and webpage media claiming that the sky is falling.
The question is, who will be going?
