My Take
Case intrigues me because his power was invisible by design. A Bristol-born, Cambridge-educated civil servant, he rose to Cabinet Secretary, steering the machinery of British government from behind the curtain. Stepping into a Downing Street role left vacant for eight years signals real institutional trust. I'm drawn to figures who wield influence without the cameras, who must be discreet, durable, and relentlessly competent. The Royal Victorian Order honour fits a man whose craft is service. There is a particular dignity in the unsung work of keeping a state running.
