“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

You Can’t Dismiss Someone’s Disability — And Then Act Like You Never Saw It



⟡ “I Said I Was Ill. He Said ‘Please Stop Forwarding Me These Emails.’” ⟡
A short exchange with Metropolitan Police that proves it doesn’t take a paragraph to document disregard. Sometimes, a one-sentence response is all the negligence you need.

Correspondence to the Metropolitan Police and Westminster safeguarding services disclosing active illness, breathing difficulty, and verbal disability. Officer Aminur Rashid replies with procedural disinterest and a command to stop emailing — fully cc’d to safeguarding.


I. What Happened

In mid-October 2024, Polly Chromatic sent an email to Westminster safeguarding and GP Dr Reid disclosing the following:

  • A fever

  • Difficulty breathing

  • Ongoing verbal trauma

  • A medical complaint against her GP

  • And a clear disability adjustment request to communicate via email only

This wasn’t an escalation. It was survival.
But the Metropolitan Police responded anyway. And what did they say?

“Please stop forwarding me to these emails.”

That’s it.
No welfare check. No referral. No concern.
Just silence, wrapped in administrative dismissal — and cc’d to safeguarding.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That a lawful disability accommodation was requested

  • That police and safeguarding were notified of acute medical distress

  • That the reply from MPS was not protective — it was performative rejection

  • That systemic disregard can be boiled down to one reply

  • That the state saw a collapsing parent — and logged her as spam


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because there’s no need for speculation when they write it down for you. SWANK archived this to:

  • Prove that institutional actors received medical disclosures — and replied with dismissal

  • Demonstrate that verbal disability was documented and denied

  • Capture police refusal in the body of a single sentence

  • Establish the tone of systemic negligence before safeguarding escalation

This isn’t a dramatic letter. It’s worse: it’s a casual refusal to acknowledge human need.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010
    • Section 20: Communication adjustment ignored
    • Section 27: Retaliatory tone in response to medical disclosure
    • Section 149: Public authority’s failure to eliminate discrimination

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 8: Family and private life
    • Article 3: Degrading treatment through indifference

  • Police Code of Ethics –
    • Respect for human dignity
    • Responsibility to act with care toward vulnerable individuals

  • NHS Duty of Candour & Coordination – Dr Reid’s inclusion is a medical safeguarding trigger point


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a failure to respond. It was a decision. A decision to view medically vulnerable people as inconveniences. A decision to ignore statutory adjustments. A decision to protect the inbox, not the individual.

SWANK London Ltd. recognises this as an official procedural rejection of medical reality, delivered by the Met in under 12 words.

Her Oxygen Was Low. Their Empathy Was Lower.



⟡ She Reported Disability Symptoms. He Replied, “Please Stop.” ⟡
Metropolitan Police Officer Aminur Rashid responds to a safeguarding-related medical update the only way he knows how: with contempt.

An email chain documenting the parent’s attempt to update professionals — including NHS and safeguarding staff — about severe breathing complications and GP failures. Officer Aminur Rashid’s reply: “Please stop forwarding me to these emails.”


I. What Happened

The parent — disabled, non-verbal, and responsible for four children — issued a health alert.
Her oxygen was dropping. Her GP had failed to act.
She forwarded the information to relevant professionals, as instructed.
Officer Aminur Rashid responded with a single line:
“Please stop forwarding me to these emails.”
No question. No concern. No duty of care.
Just digital dismissal in the face of medical risk.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That a serving Metropolitan Police officer dismissed a disabled parent’s urgent health report

  • That this occurred during active safeguarding scrutiny and legal reporting

  • That institutional actors were present on the thread and did not intervene

  • That respiratory symptoms and housing-related medical risk were not investigated


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because telling a disabled parent to “stop emailing” about their own survival is not just rude — it’s dereliction.
Because public institutions should not require a death certificate before they start listening.
And because this wasn’t a meltdown — it was a medical fact.
Ignored.


IV. Violations Identified

  • Neglect of Duty in Police Safeguarding Context

  • Discrimination by Dismissal of Medically Disabled Reporting Parent

  • Failure to Investigate Documented Health Risk

  • Obstruction of Health Disclosure via Verbal Shutdown

  • Multi-agency Complicity Through Non-Response


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to ask for communication and then punish it.
You don’t get to demand updates and then delete them unread.
This was not excessive — it was survival.
And now, it’s evidence.
Let it be known: when she was short of breath, the police ran out of patience first.
