I've been aware of the allegations made about Edward Heath and his taste for "young boys" for some time. If so, the question being, was Heath simply a homosexual with a preference for youthful adult males or male children? Because there is a vast chasm between the two.

I wasn't aware of Heath's alleged links to Savile or the Jersey Haute de la Garenne children's home and the Belfast Kincora boys home, until more recently. I've also read his yacht "Morning Cloud" was dubbed "Morning Sickness" by bodyguards because of what allegedly took place on board.

Any of this stuff in Googleable, and there's no way of knowing if any of it is true, yet with this recent flood of revelations unfolding about Savile, his likely co-workers/co-abusers and seeming protection both by those in power in the BBC and a knowing but compliantly quiet press, the idea that Downing street could have housed a known paedophile or even a ring of abusers, becomes less and less an incredible notion.
