Norma Levy was a prostitute who slept with Lord Lambton, then Under-Secretary for Defence in Ted Heaths Conservative government. Photographs were taken of the liaison and attempts made to sell them to the papers.
In the aftermath, Lord Lambton resigned. Due to confusion with the Jellicoe building and the minister, George Jellicoe (the Lord Privy Seal and Leader of the House of Lords) also resigned after admitting casual affairs with call girls [8].
Norma named a third and possibly a fourth minister but this were denied by the Government [2]. Police were told to investigate the Sunday Peoples dossier by Home Secretary Mr Carr, but did not contact Norma Levy [2].
To add to the intrigue a German “hostess operator” Hans Ulrich-Altoff was tried for pimping in Germany [1] and had claimed to work with Norma and that they had an arrangement to swap girls between English and German outfits [1]. Part of the charges against Hans were that he tried to entice children to pose for erotic pictures, which he denied [1].
In 2004 the BBC stated that “Documents released by the National Archives on Thursday under the 30-year rule show MI5 feared a scandal and Mr Heath had ordered a Security Commission inquiry into the implications of the affair” [7].
In 2007 Norma Levy was interviewed by the Independent, she maintained that there was a third minister who used call girls and named him. The newspaper, which knows but has not divulged the minister’s name, describes him as “today one of Britain’s most respected and best-known elder statesmen”. He was said to use a blonde German girl called “Rocha”[3] .
There is National Archive Document PREM 15/1906 labelled Consideration of publicity for statement made by Norma Levy concerning third minister in the Lambton/Jellicoe affair [4]
Colin Levy, Normas husband, has been described as a taxi driver ‘I never saw him drive any cab,’ she scoffs. In fact, she says, he never seemed to do much work at all, but he always had plenty of money, and a yacht in St Tropez. He also travelled extensively, went out at strange times, and mingled with mysterious people, prompting Norma to believe he was somehow involved with the security services.[5]
The Mail continues “Norma insists, not unconvincingly, that she had no part in the plot to trap Lambton on film. The first she knew about the notorious photographs taken in her bedroom, she says, was when a man – whom she presumes to have been a government agent – called at the flat, and suggested that she move abroad because a scandal was about to break.”[5]
Norma Levy died in 2007 of pancreatic cancer [10]. She was terrified powerful enemies were still out to get her’. Did they?
Heath has also slept with prostitutes [11] so depending on the timing of his use, could have been lucky to get away without scrutiny. The cabinet also had Reg Maudling, who previously had to resign in the Poulson affair and Keith Joseph who has been linked to child sexual abuse [12]
This leaves many questions some of which are below.
What is in the National Archive Document PREM 15/1906?
Who was the third minister named by Norma Levy? and who the possible fourth?
Was the Heath cabinet stuffed with users of prostitutes?
What were the results of the Report of the Security Commission inquiry?
What happened to Hans Ulrich-Altoff, what were his links to photographing children and his links to English pimping and prostitution?
At the time of Altoffs trial Heath was on a private visit to Bavaria -what was he doing, especially in view of the allegations about him being a DVD agent? [9]
What was the role of Colin Levy?
What was the role of MI5, especially given all the indications of the “elite” child sexual abuse paedosadism scandal that MI5 oversee it for blackmail purposes?
Time for the citizen sleuths to dig out more…
Additions since publication
via @snowfaked . There appears to be a diary, uncovered from a probe into pornography rackets, with politicians names in it [14] [15] Whose was this and what names were in it?
via @cassandracogno . There appears to be also a call boy scandal which was overshadowed by the Lambton scandal
There is also another article on this which unfortunately I cannot quite read [17] [18]
