Chronological, evidence-based complaint filed to the PHSO naming Westminster Children’s Services for disability discrimination, safeguarding retaliation, racial bias, and professional misconduct — with full archival dossier.
I. What Happened
This 16-page complaint, submitted by Polly Chromatic, is addressed to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman and backed by a meticulously documented archive. It charts a devastating timeline:
Feb 2024 – Request for medical protection and reasonable adjustments
March–August 2024 – Clinical harm, school failures, police involvement, ignored safeguarding warnings
Nov 2024–Jan 2025 – Social worker defamation, refusal to record asthma diagnosis, and medical trauma
Feb–April 2025 – After a formal complaint and a police report were submitted, Westminster retaliated with PLO
The letter outlines how racialised surveillance, disability neglect, and child-endangering escalation were used in response to complaint — not concern.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
Westminster used safeguarding not as protection, but as institutional punishment
Reasonable adjustments were ignored — and then reframed as evidence of mental instability
Officers under active misconduct behaved with total impunity, citing procedure to avoid scrutiny
Medical negligence was never investigated — instead, the whistleblower was
Social work conduct contributed to reputational damage, educational harm, and emotional trauma
III. Why SWANK Filed It
This is not a local complaint. It is a national-level submission that asserts systemic failure. SWANK archived this record because it represents the final threshold: once every internal process has failed, the only option left is documentation and exposure.
SWANK filed this complaint to:
Demand public accountability from an independent, parliamentary body
Prove that procedural retaliation is not just real — it's structured, repeatable, and state-endorsed
Provide a legal and factual foundation for institutional redress, both for this case and others like it
IV. Violations
Equality Act 2010 – Sections 15, 19, 20, 27 (disability discrimination, indirect discrimination, victimisation, failure to adjust)
Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 6 (fair trial), Article 8 (private and family life), Article 14 (non-discrimination)
Children Act 1989 – Misuse of safeguarding powers, emotional harm, failure to act in best interest
UNCRC – Article 12 (child’s voice), Article 23 (disability support), Article 3 (best interest principle)
Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman Act 1993 – Maladministration and injustice
Social Work England Standards – Breaches of ethical practice, truthfulness, and impartiality
V. SWANK’s Position
This letter is a warning to every institution watching: the era of quiet retaliation is over. When you use PLO to punish a medical accommodation, when you escalate safeguarding after a police report — you do not get to hide behind policy. You get named. And you get filed.
SWANK London Ltd. calls for:
Full Ombudsman investigation into Westminster’s misuse of safeguarding as disciplinary retaliation
Public recognition of procedural abuse under the Children Act and Equality Act
Immediate withdrawal of all PLO, CPP, and CIN actions against the family until review concludes
