'Somebody needs to be held accountable', says Cllr Peter Zinkin
Councillor Peter Zinkin said, "Somebody needs to be held accountable" regarding a crisis in the children's social care system in the UK, specifically the death of a young woman named Nonita Grabovskyte.
Cllr Zinkin, who is the Leader of the Conservative Group on Barnet Council, made the comments to Sky News on November 18, 2025. Nonita died just days after her 18th birthday, having recently transitioned from children's social care to the adult social care system.
The statement highlights a potential gap between children's and adult services, as Nonita had reportedly begged her local Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) for one more meeting before the transition but was denied.
