“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

In re Gaslighting: On the Substitution of Support with Accusation in the Misconduct of Westminster



The Institutional Gaslighting of Welfare

(On the Substitution of Support with Accusation by Westminster Children’s Services)

Filed: 2 September 2025
Reference Code: ZC25C50281–Addendum–Gaslighting
Filename: 2025-09-02_SWANK_Addendum_InstitutionalGaslighting.pdf
One-line Summary: When support is too costly, Westminster replaces it with accusations.


I. What Happened

  • Medical routines for asthma and dysphonia ignored.

  • Stability and education requests met with suspicion.

  • Mother branded “non-compliant” for objecting to unsafe practice.

  • Failures reframed as fabricated “abuse.”


II. What the Addendum Establishes

  • Gaslighting as Policy: Accusations deployed as a budget-friendly substitute for services.

  • Projection: Their failures re-issued as allegations against the mother.

  • Bureaucratic Survival: To admit error is unthinkable; therefore accusation must prevail.

  • Disability Disdain: Reasonable adjustments denied, difference reframed as defect.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

This is not safeguarding. It is a closed loop of institutional dishonesty:

  1. Withhold support.

  2. Blame deterioration on the mother.

  3. Justify surveillance and denial of support.

  4. Repeat, until records tell a story of accusation rather than neglect.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.17 – duty to support children in need, breached.

  • Children Act 1989, s.1(3) – welfare checklist ignored.

  • Equality Act 2010, ss.20-21 – no adjustments for asthma/dysphonia.

  • ECHR, Arts. 8 & 14 – family life obstructed, discrimination entrenched.

  • UNCRC, Arts. 3 & 31 – best interests and right to play denied.


V. SWANK’s Position

What Westminster calls “safeguarding” is, in fact, bureaucratic self-preservation at the expense of child welfare. Their accusations are not protection; they are camouflage.
