“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. Westminster City Council & Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea – On the Legal and Ethical Requirements of Professional Competence in Child Welfare



SWANK LONDON LTD – EVIDENTIARY CATALOGUE ENTRY
Filed: 10 August 2025
Ref: WCC+RBKC/PC-CONDUCT/2025-08-10
Filename: 2025-08-10_SWANK_Letter_Westminster_RBKC_ProfessionalConductObjection.pdf
Summary: Formal objection to Westminster and RBKC’s professional conduct, with demand for immediate lawful, dignified treatment of children in care.


On the Unacceptability of Ignorance in Positions of Authority


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic issued a formal written objection to Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services, citing systemic deficiencies in training, professional will, and adherence to statutory safeguarding obligations. The letter challenges the competence and conduct of named social workers and senior managers, highlighting the disparity between lawful child welfare duties and the behaviour observed in practice.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  1. The respondents’ conduct fails to meet even the baseline standards of lawful safeguarding practice.

  2. There is a demonstrable absence of professional rigour, respect for dignity, and adherence to statutory obligations.

  3. The sustained hostility towards the complainant and her children is incompatible with lawful, ethical public service.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the preservation of dignity in child welfare work is not optional, and the spectacle of institutional actors attempting to perform it without preparation, skill, or self-awareness is both dangerous and absurd. This is not merely a failure of training; it is a collapse of professional legitimacy.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Failure to safeguard and promote the welfare of children.

  • Working Together to Safeguard Children (Statutory Guidance) – Non-compliance with statutory duties.

  • Article 8 ECHR – Interference with family life absent lawful justification.

  • Public Service Ethical Standards – Breach of professional conduct and impartiality.


V. SWANK’s Position

Westminster and RBKC’s conduct represents an unambiguous deviation from lawful and ethical safeguarding standards. SWANK London Ltd. demands immediate remedial action, the cessation of hostility towards the complainant’s children, and the replacement of unfit personnel with individuals capable of lawful, trauma-informed practice.


Final Paragraph – SWANK’s Legal-Aesthetic Authority
One may forgive ignorance in the untrained, the uninitiated, or the unassuming. But when it resides in those appointed to guard the welfare of children, it is neither forgivable nor survivable as policy. SWANK London Ltd. will continue to hold the mirror high until the reflection is either corrected or removed.
