I’ve just been appointed as a Fellow at the Adam Smith Institute.
An honour and an ornament, not worthy etc.
The major benefit (and one explicitly intended) is that when approaching a commissioning editor I actually have a handle to use, something to say in response to the inevitable "Well, who are you then?"
Can a peerage be far behind?

Depends on how much he is willing to pay. A businessman like Mr Worstall is sure to work out his return on the investment in ermine, it might not be even be worth it.
I don't think he can accept a peerage. I shall be thoroughly disgusted if he does. Anyway, he's a resident of Portugal - surely that disqualifies him. We don't need another Lord Ashdown scandal.
Although resident in Portugal, Timmy is, as far as I know, still a British citizen (though I could be wrong).
