Paul Page, who worked at the palace between 1998 and 2004, has accused the disgraced royal of preventing official logs recording the names of his guests.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew has denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Page told The Sun he felt obliged to contact cops with his own information after seeing the publication&#8217;s front page.<\/p>\n<p>He claims that women who turn up at the palace as guests of Andrew were allowed in with no security clearance.<\/p>\n<p>In direct violation of security protocol, officers were not permitted to know the guests&#8217; names &#8211; even with the late Queen Elizabeth II residing in the residence, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Page said: &#8220;We were just told a female will be coming at whatever time. It\u2019s always after closing, and a female will be approaching the front gate.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We were told to call footmen and then either the female would walk through unescorted, or the footman would come down to collect her and walk her to Andrew. We weren\u2019t allowed to know the names. It\u2019s a security procedure, because how do we even know if the woman here is the one he was expecting?&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If he\u2019s having random people in the Palace, you can hardly intervene.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For health and safety, if there\u2019s a fire, we don\u2019t know who\u2019s in, that\u2019s why you have logs of who\u2019s coming into the Palace and who is going out.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A former royal police protection officer who saw Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor bringing women into Buckingham Palace has contacted Thames&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":424099,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[99770,117988,155884,96,59,223,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-424098","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor-latest","tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor-news","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-royal-family","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/424098","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=424098"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/424098\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/424099"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=424098"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=424098"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=424098"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
