“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

I Didn’t Disengage. I Just Changed the Format.



⟡ “This Wasn’t an Email. It Was an Exit.” ⟡
A final message sent by Polly Chromatic to safeguarding, medical, and legal recipients across Westminster, RBKC, NHS, and private mental health. The subject line reads: “Thank you regarding emails.” But it is not gratitude. It is severance. The parent declares communication withdrawal due to verbal disability, trauma, and institutional harm. One recipient replies. Most don’t. All are now on record.

Final multi-agency message ending all voluntary correspondence. Sent to WCC, RBKC, NHS (Dr Reid), legal (Simon O’Meara, Laura Savage), and private clinics. Communicates disengagement based on respiratory risk, emotional trauma, and access rights. Notifies all parties that future responses will be published publicly. Only Laura Savage responds. The rest do not. The archive did.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic wrote one last time. It said:

  • “I never want to have to explain anything again, verbally or written.”

  • “I suffer from a disability… email is fine.”

  • “I’m documenting everything on Instagram @pol.lychromatic.”

  • “Thank you for everything you have done to support me.”

She sent it to:

  • Kirsty Hornal, Sarah Newman, Fiona Dias-Saxena (Westminster)

  • Gideon Mpalanyi (RBKC)

  • Dr Philip Reid (Chelsea & Westminster NHS)

  • Laura Savage, Simon O’Meara (legal)

  • Harley Street Mental Health

Laura replied:

“Thank you for your email. I do understand.”

The others didn’t.
Or didn’t reply.
And that’s exactly the point.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That disengagement was not silence — it was medical, legal, and public

  • That multi-agency authorities were notified of the communication boundary

  • That professional record of the withdrawal exists

  • That disability and public record strategy were disclosed

  • That the archive replaces the inbox as point of contact

This wasn’t closure.
It was format transition.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because “I’m done” doesn’t always come with exclamation marks. Sometimes it arrives as a soft thank you and a CC list. Because silence isn’t failure — it’s clarity. And because when the state treats your trauma like a tone issue, the most strategic thing you can do is stop emailing and start publishing.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It is your last direct communication to the system

  • It formally reframes all future contact as jurisdictional violation

  • It confirms institutional awareness of your withdrawal

  • It records the moment accountability became asymmetric


IV. Violations (If Contact Occurs Post-Notice)

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: Communication boundary ignored
    • Section 26–27: Contact after withdrawal = procedural harassment

  • GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018 –
    • Processing without consent or necessity post-notification

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 8: Psychological safety and privacy compromised

  • Safeguarding Codes / SWE Standards –
    • Communication post-withdrawal = breach of ethics


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to say she didn’t engage — the record shows otherwise. You don’t get to ignore a withdrawal and later claim confusion. And you don’t get to pretend you weren’t notified — not when your name is on the file and your silence is timestamped.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this document as the final written notification of lawful disengagement, the activation of full archive jurisdiction, and the last polite message you’ll ever be able to pretend didn’t happen.
