The new Justice of the Supreme Court will not receive a peerage. See earlier posts. But will he receive some sort of title upgrade when he joins the other Lords and Ladies in the Supreme Court? Scottish Senior Judges get a Lord or Lady upgrade but no peerage on promotion - the same could happen for Sir John? Or will he be relegated to being merely Sir John (although always My Lord)?

We have peerages and we have knighthoods. It is one or the other in England and Wales. I have never heard of any sort of of intermediate title.
