Spotted in the small print...

... of the Queen's Birthday Honours List. A knighthood for Moir Lockheed, Chief Exec of First Group, for "services to public transport". Hmmm....

And a well-deserved OBE for John Grimshaw from Sustrans, to add to his MBE.

Grimshaw got a CBE, not an OBE. Still not quite a K though.

Sorry, yes, you're right. I never know the difference between these things. Am thinking of running a new poll on my website: who most deserves a knighthood for services to public transport - John Grimshaw or Moir Lockheed?

You might find that Moir Lockhead being a secret donor to the Labour Party has some bearing on his knighthood.
