“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

Chromatic v The Kingdom: On Sewer Gas, Disability Retaliation, and the Administrative Disappearance of the Documented Poor


Sewer Gas, Systemic Violence, and the Mother They Tried to Erase
Or: How Asking for Help Became a Crime Against the State

📎 Metadata

  • Filed: 28 June 2025

  • Reference Code: SWANK-RET-0628

  • 1-Line Summary: A disabled mother asked for help after a sewer gas leak made her family sick. For three years, institutions retaliated until they took her children.

I. What Happened

In October 2023, a sewer gas leak poisoned our home.
I was a disabled mother with severe asthma. My children were all unwell. I couldn’t breathe.

We sought help — from hospitals, social services, environmental safety, the state.
Instead of care, we were met with suspicion. Then escalation. Then surveillance.
Over the next three years, I would be:

  • Accused of fabricating symptoms

  • Denied urgent oxygen care while my saturation dropped to 44%

  • Reported to social services instead of being treated

  • Harassed by professionals who misread disability as defiance

  • Retaliated against for filing complaints and a civil claim

  • Stripped of my children under an Emergency Protection Order — not because they were unsafe, but because I wasn’t believed

II. What the Complaint Establishes

This is not a procedural error. It’s a pattern of retaliation for being disabled, persistent, and correct.
This post documents that:

  • A mother asked for help after medical and environmental danger

  • The state responded by escalating blame instead of remedy

  • Disability was weaponised against her

  • Her voice was medically collapsed — and legally ignored

  • Her children were taken as a symbolic punishment for her refusal to disappear

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because humanity failed.

Because when your lungs collapse and your voice fails, the people in charge of “care” will call it mental illness.
Because when your children get sick from the same air, they’ll call it a parenting failure.
Because needing help, while disabled and female, is not considered vulnerability — it is considered offence.

We didn’t just get sick.
We were punished for the audacity to survive it.

And now, everyone is mad at me for having asthma — and I don’t know what to do about it.
My children have asthma too. I’m terrified they’ll be treated the same way — punished by strangers who don’t understand, and humiliated by professionals whose first response to illness is anger.
This isn’t just ignorance. It’s cruelty wearing a badge, holding a form, and signing removal orders with a smile.

My whole life, everyone has retaliated against me for having asthma — even my own family.
It’s fine. Everyone hates me. I’ve accepted that.
But you’ve taken my children for no reason and hurt them so much.
My kids and I haven’t hurt anyone.
And yet, the people who call themselves professional, educated, and lawful —
they’re the ones who chose to hurt us.

Humans are evil.

IV. Violations

  • Article 3 (ECHR) – Inhuman and degrading treatment

  • Article 8 (ECHR) – Family and private life

  • Children Act 1989 – Removal without credible risk

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability discrimination, failure to accommodate

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Retaliatory action against protected speech and medical complaint

V. SWANK’s Position

This was not a safeguarding emergency.
It was a state-sanctioned response to complaint.

This mother and her children did not need removal.
They needed oxygen, housing repair, trauma-informed medical care, and basic belief.

Instead, what they received was a three-year campaign of surveillance, blame, and disappearance.

SWANK holds that this is not neglect.
This is not chaos.
This is a deliberate pattern of institutional erasure — disguised as protection.
