#3  His record is pretty impressive .

Knight Grand Cross of the Order of the Bath,
Commander of the Order of the British Empire,
Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath,
Commander of the Order of the British Empire,
Officer of the Order of the British Empire,
Aide de Camp General to HM the Queen
Mention in Despatches, Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Prisons and Life peer

That being said , hes forgotten whose who in todays world , and perhaps should just go back to writing books on prison reform
