Norman Le Brocq (8 January 1922 – 26 November 1996) was a communist, trade union activist, and a leader of a Jersey resistance cell opposed to the German occupation of the Channel Islands during World War II.

[2][3][4] After the war, Le Brocq became a human rights activist, campaigning for the introduction of a minimum wage, equitable divorce laws, compulsory school education and health insurance.

The other two young communist party activists were Les Huelin and Stella Perkins, both of whom joined Brocq to create a clandestine anti-nazi resistance cell to protest the German occupation of Jersey.

[12] Using a Gestetner duplicator hidden in his great-aunt's attic,[9] Le Brocq was able to secretly circulate news concerning the war without alerting the German forces and Jersey's collaborationist authorities.

[9] Eventually, Le Brocq was able to make contact with a German soldier called Paul Malbach (Mühlbach), whose father had been murdered by the Nazis in Dachau concentration camp.

"[11] Despite winning multiple elections throughout the 1960s and 70s to become a State Deputy, Le Brocq suffered heavy discrimination by many Jersey residents for his communist beliefs and was blacklisted by many of the island's employers.

[16] The houses of many JDM members were targeted by vandals who painted them with Hammer and Sickles, and in some cases, rotten vegetables were thrown at these former anti-Nazi resistors during public gatherings.

[18] Norman Le Brocq spent the remainder of his life as a campaigner for working-class rights in the field of housing and social policy, and the Communist Party's leading figure in the Channel Islands.
