“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.

Search Description:
SWANK demands assurance children will not be removed from UK without court and parental consent; diplomatic referral pending.


I. What Happened
On 1 July 2025, Polly Chromatic, founder of SWANK London Ltd., issued an urgent assurance request to Westminster Legal and Children’s Services, copying U.S. consular officials and relevant authorities. The request, filed under Family Court Case No: ZC25C50281, demanded confirmation that none of the four U.S. citizen children subject to an Interim Care Order would be removed from England and Wales without:

  1. The express written consent of both parents, and

  2. Prior permission of the Family Court.

The request invoked not only ongoing domestic proceedings, but international protections and oversight from the U.S. Department of State, CAFCASS, and judicial review proceedings already in motion.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Westminster has failed to proactively confirm jurisdictional boundaries regarding international removal.

  • There is a credible legal risk that children with dual rights may be transferred without lawful consent.

  • Medical risk factors and ongoing legal proceedings are being ignored in favour of logistical control.

  • A failure to respond within 48 hours triggers automatic escalation to diplomatic and court authorities.

  • The U.S. Embassy has already been looped into a system that has repeatedly failed to manage its own jurisdiction.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the same institution that couldn't handle local safeguarding cannot be trusted with international discretion.
Because you cannot detain children one week and contemplate their export the next.
Because legal silence, in the context of foreign nationals, is not discretion — it’s breach, at scale.
Because SWANK does not ask institutions to behave. It gives them deadlines.
And because every quiet decision made about these children is now a matter of global record.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §33 – Local authority does not have power to remove child from jurisdiction without court order

  • Family Law Act 1986, Pt. I – Jurisdictional limitations over child movement

  • HRA 1998, Art. 8 – Protection of family life, esp. for dual-national children

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Art. 36 – Duty to notify and consult U.S. authorities

  • UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Art. 10 – Family unity in cross-border cases


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t an inquiry. It was a jurisdictional line drawn in archival ink.
We do not accept informal transfers of children with formal rights.
We do not accept bureaucratic absconding disguised as discretion.
We do not accept international law being used selectively, when convenient.
You removed the children unlawfully. You do not now get to remove the country.

SWANK v Westminster: In Re The Voluntary Return They Should Have Begged to Accept



“You Took Them Without Law. Return Them Without Excuse.”

A Formal Demand for the Voluntary Return of Four U.S. Citizen Children, Now Under Judicial Review


Filed Date: 24 June 2025

Reference Code: SWANK/WESTMINSTER/0624-VOLUNTARYRETURN-DEMAND
Court Filename: 2025-06-24_Letter_to_Westminster_UrgentReturnRequest_JRNotification
One-line Summary: Westminster formally requested to return four American children in light of active Judicial Review, emergency relief filings, and disproven safeguarding claims.


I. What Happened

At 3:46 AM on 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic sent a direct and devastatingly clear message to Westminster Children’s Services:

You removed four U.S. citizen children without lawful notice, threshold, or service.
A Judicial Review is now active.
An Emergency Relief Request is pending.
A consular notice has been served.
Return the children voluntarily—or escalate this into an international scandal.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Westminster has been formally notified of active judicial proceedings challenging the lawfulness of the 23 June removal.

  • That all four children are medically vulnerable, scheduled for critical asthma appointments, and currently severed from their coordinated care.

  • That the removal occurred in the context of disability discrimination, procedural failure, and an unacknowledged civil claim.

  • That the local authority has no legal footing left, and voluntary return is the last available act of procedural dignity.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because if you take someone’s American children without notice, under the guise of “emergency,” and are then offered a diplomatic exit—but refuse it—you’re not safeguarding.
You’re playing legal chicken with a High Court engine in your rearview mirror.

Because SWANK does not whisper. It files. It timestamps. And it delivers judicial carnage with gold-lettered elegance.

Because this return request is not a favour. It is a final warning.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 44 procedural thresholds

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (Family life), Article 6 (Due process)

  • Equality Act 2010 – Sections 20, 21, and 29

  • United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child – Articles 3, 9, and 23

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations – Article 37

  • Public Law Doctrine – Abuse of Power, Illegitimate Purpose


V. SWANK’s Position

This letter is the last chance Westminster has to end the unlawful removal of foreign nationals without public disgrace.

Return the children. Keep them together. Cease retaliation. Or be prepared to explain to the High Court, the U.S. Embassy, and the international human rights community why you acted outside the law and kept going after being notified.

There is still time for resolution. But there is no more time for ignorance.

SWANK London Ltd. does not ask twice.

Polly Chromatic v Westminster: CMH Access Demanded Following Hidden Hearing Notification and Consular Breach



⟡ “They Scheduled a Hearing Without Telling Me. I Asked for the Date So I Could Tell the Embassy.” ⟡
This Wasn’t a Calendar Query. It Was a Jurisdictional Ultimatum — Filed in Velvet, Copied to Sovereignty.

Filed: 24 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/FAMILYCOURT/CMH-REQUEST-OVERSIGHT
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-24_SWANK_Email_Mullem_Request_CMH_HearingDateAndDetails.pdf
Formal written demand for the time, date, and access provisions of the upcoming Case Management Hearing (CMH), filed amid active consular coordination following the removal of four U.S. citizen children.


I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025 at 15:04, Polly Chromatic submitted a direct request to her solicitor, Alan Mullem, demanding immediate confirmation of the upcoming Case Management Hearing (CMH) referenced in correspondence from Rosita Moise.

The email made clear:

  • The need for 72 hours’ notice

  • The necessity of remote attendance due to disability

  • The presence of U.S. consular coordination protocols

As of submission, no reply had been logged. No link provided. No hearing time disclosed. Four U.S. citizen children — RegalPrinceKing, and Honor — remained removed under a challenged EPO.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The court and legal representative failed to notify the parent of a scheduled CMH

  • Disability access and international status were clearly stated — and unacknowledged

  • The solicitor was formally instructed to retrieve basic jurisdictional data

  • The archive was cc’ed in real time — making silence a form of procedural misconduct

  • The mother was required to chase her own access to a hearing about her children

This wasn’t a scheduling request. It was a sovereignty alert ignored by counsel.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because you don’t get to remove children and then hide the hearing.
Because consular presence requires notice, not retroactive apologies.
Because if the solicitor won’t secure a link, the archive will file the absence instead.
Because this wasn’t a case update — it was a demand written for jurisdictional memory.


IV. Violations

  • Family Procedure Rules, Part 4 & 18 – Failure to notify party of scheduled hearing

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – Disability accommodations disregarded

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Article 36 – No consular access to foreign nationals’ hearing

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 6 – Denial of fair participation in judicial process

  • UNCRPD Article 13 – Legal access and communication denied to disabled litigant


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t about logistics. It was a formal record of denial dressed up as forgetfulness.
This wasn’t a request for a Zoom link. It was a jurisdictional clock ticking toward escalation.
This wasn’t accidental. It was a pattern — and now it’s logged.

SWANK hereby logs this request not as an email — but as a filing of absence, silence, and deliberate delay.
The hearing is scheduled.
The mother wasn’t told.
But now the archive has the timestamp — and the embassy has the thread.

Polly Chromatic v United Kingdom: Emergency Request for U.S. Protective Observation Under Vienna Convention

Here is your very snobby SWANK post for the URGENT Request for Protective Observation – U.S. Citizen Children Removed in UK Without Due Process:


⟡ “If Four American Children Disappear in London, Does the Embassy Notice?” ⟡
We Filed a Judicial Review. They Sent the Police. We Filed This Next.

Filed: 24 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/USAEMBASSY/PROTECTIVE-OBSERVATION-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-24_SWANK_Request_USEmbassy_ProtectiveObservation_ChildrenRemoved.pdf
Formal request to U.S. consular authorities for active protective observation following the unlawful removal of four American minors without warrant, threshold, or medical continuity.


I. What Happened

At 01:53 AM on 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic sent an urgent request to U.S. consular services asking for protective observation over her four U.S. citizen children, who were removed by Westminster authorities without notice, lawful order, or disability accommodation. The removal came two days after the filing of a Judicial Review and public release of evidence documenting systemic safeguarding misuse. One child, Regal, age 16, was taken without consent, hearing, or legal representation — despite his age and autonomous legal status under UK law.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Four American children were removed on UK soil by British authorities without due process

  • The mother, a disabled U.S. citizen, was not notified, heard, or included in any legal forum

  • No safeguarding threshold or documentation was produced at the time of removal

  • Medical care was disrupted for all children, who suffer from eosinophilic asthma

  • Consular oversight has not yet been confirmed despite the invocation of Vienna protections

This wasn’t cross-agency confusion. It was an orchestrated jurisdictional suppression.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because diplomatic observation should not require a death, a headline, or a hashtag.
Because Regal is not a resident of Westminster. He is a U.S. citizen unlawfully detained.
Because removing children from a disabled American mother without cause is not oversight — it is escalation.
Because when a country ignores your documents, you file them internationally.
Because this archive didn’t wait for permission — it activated protection.


IV. Violations

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Article 36 – Consular notification and observation rights violated

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6 and 8 – Right to a fair hearing and family life denied

  • Children Act 1989, Section 31 – No legal threshold for removal met or disclosed

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – Failure to accommodate disability in proceedings

  • UNCRC Articles 9, 12, 24 – Unlawful separation, silencing of child views, disruption of medical treatment

  • UNCRPD Article 13 – Disabled parent excluded from judicial protection


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a misunderstanding. It was the scripted disappearance of vulnerable citizens under the colour of care.
This wasn’t family law. It was territorial overreach without cause or court.
This wasn’t consular delay. It is now a test of whether sovereignty means anything in the face of administrative force.

SWANK demands protective oversight not as a favour, but as a right guaranteed by treaty.
The removal happened without law. The Embassy must now act within it.

This post is not an alert. It is a legal instrument.
