“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: Doctrine of Silence Shattered by Record-Keeping


⟡ On the Shock of Accountability ⟡

Summary: The destabilisation of a social worker when exposed to structured documentation.

I. What Happened

Social worker Kirsty Hornal assumed that her tactics of projection, disbelief, and verbal dominance would be met with parental collapse. Instead, every act was logged into court addenda, oversight complaints, and the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue. Her visible shock marked the moment that silence ceased to be the system’s ally.

II. What the Document Establishes

  • Institutional Assumption: Parents are expected to be too overwhelmed to resist or record.

  • Departure from Script: Documentation converts harassment into evidence.

  • Exposure of Fragility: Authority that depends on silence collapses when observed.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the performance of safeguarding dissolves the instant accountability arrives. Shock at being documented is not incidental; it is diagnostic of a culture built on secrecy.

IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.1 & s.22 — Welfare principle and duty to safeguard breached.

  • Equality Act 2010, s.20 — Failure to make reasonable adjustments.

  • Bromley’s Family Law (12th ed.) — Safeguarding requires proportionate, lawful process, not coercion or silence.

  • ECHR Articles 6, 8, 14; Article 8(2) proportionality test — Breaches of fair hearing, family life, and non-discrimination.

  • Case Law: Re B-S (2013); Re H-C (2016) — Evidence, not formula, must justify interference.

  • UNCRC Articles 3 & 12 — Best interests and children’s voices ignored.

  • CRPD Articles 7 & 23 — Disabled parents penalised for documenting.

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not “hostility.” This is accountability.
We do not accept disbelief as evidence.
We reject safeguarding-by-theatre.
We will document the shock of exposure until silence ceases to protect misconduct.
