Barnet Council’s social services are dangerous and negligent toward children and the wider community. They misuse authority to intimidate vulnerable children and families instead of protecting them.According to the Ofsted report (2017), children in Barnet were left at “unacceptable significant risk”, with serious failures in safeguarding, delayed interventions, and poor decision-making.It is now December 2025, and the same problems continue — with devastating consequences.Since then, there have been multiple child deaths and suicides linked to failures in care, including: • The suicide of a young girl in care, exposed by a Sky News investigation. • Reports of three children dying by suicide, and a school-aged girl taking her own life, raising grave concerns about mental health monitoring, safeguarding, and accountability.Instead of learning lessons and protecting children, the system appears unchanged. Families and children are left fearful, unheard, and unsupported, while serious risks are ignored until it is too late.This is not just poor service — it is a systemic safeguarding failure that puts lives at risk. Transparency, accountability, and urgent reform are long overdue.
