“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

She Sent a Threat. We Sent a Regulator.


⟡ She Threatened a Supervision Order. We Filed a Misconduct Complaint. ⟡

Formal misconduct referral to Social Work England citing supervision order threats, procedural abuse, and discriminatory safeguarding actions by Senior Practitioner Kirsty Hornal.

I. What Happened

On 31 May 2025, Kirsty Hornal — a Senior Practitioner at Westminster — issued a written threat to seek a supervision order.

This came just days after receiving a legal demand asserting the complainant’s disability rights, including written-only communication as a medical necessity.

No formal concern was raised. No response to the audit was provided.
Just a retaliatory escalation — silent, timed, and deliberate.

Between 8 and 16 June, surveillance-style visits occurred.
There was no written contact.
Only physical presence and procedural intimidation.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Kirsty Hornal issued retaliatory safeguarding threats after being served legal notice

  • That Westminster social work staff failed to honour documented disability adjustments

  • That misconduct was deployed during an open audit, complaint, and legal claim

  • That the named practitioner acted without accountability or lawful justification

  • That Westminster allowed discriminatory safeguarding conduct under public scrutiny

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because retaliation in writing is still retaliation.

Because when a professional threatens a disabled parent for filing a legal notice,
that’s not safeguarding. It’s career negligence.

Because SWANK’s role is not to rehabilitate the image of unaccountable officials —
It’s to report them.

IV. Violations

  • Social Work England Professional Standards (2019)

    • Sections 1.4, 1.5, 3.3, 4.4, and 6.5

    • Failing to prevent harm, respect dignity, act without discrimination, or maintain transparency

  • Equality Act 2010 – Sections 20 & 27

    • Adjustment ignored. Retaliation documented.

  • Children Act 1989 – Misuse of procedural authority

    • Attempted order threats without legal basis during oversight

  • Human Rights Act – Article 8

    • Intrusion masked as intervention

V. SWANK’s Position

She wrote the threat.
We wrote the report.

This wasn’t a concern.
It was a counterattack.

And now it’s archived.
Documented.
And referred.
