“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Summary: Authority detached from duty collapses into institutional theatre, harming children and law alike.

I. Context Recorded

Westminster Children’s Services have repeatedly exercised authority severed from lawful duty. This was not the practice of safeguarding, but the staging of power. Intimidation, performance, and institutional theatre replaced fairness, substance, and legal compliance.

II. The Problem of Performance

  • Authority requires substance: care, fairness, procedure.

  • Without substance, power decays into performance.

  • Performance cannot withstand scrutiny; it collapses into theatre.

III. Consequences in This Case

  • Restrictions imposed without proportionality.

  • Accusations recycled without substantiation.

  • Police interventions mimicking scripts, not evidence.

  • Welfare of children subordinated to image management.

  • Assessments speculated but never lawfully conducted.

This is authority abusing itself: power severed from lawful purpose.

IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

  • Children Act 1989 — Sections 1 & 22 breached.

  • Education Act 1996, s.7 — lawful homeschooling obstructed.

  • Bromley, Family Law — coercion cannot masquerade as cooperation.

  • Human Rights Act 1998 — ss. 3 & 6 violated.

  • ECHR — Articles 8 & 14 breached.

  • CRC — Articles 3, 12, 23 ignored.

  • Equality Act 2010 — discrimination and failure to accommodate.

  • UDHR — Articles 12 & 25 infringed.

  • Case Law:

    • ZH (Tanzania) v SSHD — best interests must prevail.

    • Re C — personality traits not grounds for state intervention.

    • Johansen v Norway — disproportionate interference condemned.

  • Public Law Principles — proportionality, fairness, rationality discarded.

  • Statutory Guidance — safeguarding inverted into punishment.

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding.
This is pantomime.

SWANK does not accept the theatrics of power without duty.
SWANK rejects the pantomime of authority as protection.
SWANK will archive every false performance until law reclaims its stage.
