    A mum who took her seven-year-old son to a grotto says she was left reeling when Santa promised he would get a toy costing £400.
    Linda Belnik, 35, claims the Westfield Father Christmas talked about getting son Joshua, seven, Star Wars Death Star Lego set.
    She said that he told her son: ‘See this white phone? I will call the elves now and get them to make it for you.’
    However, Westfield said that their Santas are trained not to promise specific gifts.
    Mrs Belnik continued: ‘I was stood there cringing. I couldn’t believe he’d promised such an expensive toy. Santas usually tell kids they’ll see what they can do, not promise anything.


    Linda complained to Westfield shopping centre in White City, West London, after getting home. As a gesture of goodwill, Westfield offered a free ice-skating package for the family.But Linda, a building company director from Camberley, Surrey, said: ‘It doesn’t help explain to my son why he’s not got his present on Christmas Day.’
    Westfield said: ‘All grotto staff are trained and follow script guidelines which, under no circumstances, include the promise of specific gifts.
    ‘The Santa has over 20 years’ experience and has not promised specific gifts to the child. Westfield is committed to providing the best experience for children and families.’

    Linda last night stood by her and her son’s version, saying: ‘That’s what he said, end of.’

    Take a look at the photos, they are so obviously set up with the photographer saying "come on sunshine, make the face when Mummy told you Santa was a c.unt"

    Looks like the family skating trip (worth about £40) isn't going to cut it and the 'Company Director' is hoping to shame Westfield into coughing up a £400 Star Wars Lego set for her kid.

    The headline may as well read "Crap parent can't say no to kids so expects boo-hoo in The Metro will do the trick instead" I hope the scrote gets bits of the Death Star jammed up his nose and his Mum treads on the bricks in her bare feet which everyone knows is the worst pain of all.

    Welcome to Tory Britain, where you're actively encouraged to hate on anyone you think is getting a better deal than you.

    So ****ing what? Either the kid gets a free Lego set or they still get a day out. Let her give it a go ffs. It's only because mongs like you read articles like this one that The Metro keep on publishing them <doh>

    Westfield in White City? Explains everything. Something about W12 that encourages appaling human beings to flourish there.

    You are not wrong. The first theft on the day Westfield opened was some scumbag from White City who chored a scarf. I think it was something ridiculous like 40 minutes after it opened. The surprising thing was that it only took 40 minutes and that it wasn't a diamond heist.

    So what? So you can post how devastated you are on Facebook in an attempt to publicly shame a shopping centre into giving you £400 worth of free merchandise? And you think this equates to a "better deal"? She is no different from all the fake whiplash claimants pretending their neck was broken in a 0.5 mph car park nudge.

    She's an attention seeking low life scumbag so it isn't exactly a surprise that you think she has the right to "give it a go".

    If Lego had given the plans to the rebellion in the first place a lot of innocent lives, indeed planets, could have been saved.
