“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 (Sovereign Documents; Welfare Irrelevance; Retaliatory Misuse of Contact)



ADDENDUM: CHILDREN’S PASSPORTS AND BIRTH CERTIFICATES – JURISDICTIONAL LIMITS, WELFARE IRRELEVANCE, AND COERCIVE MISUSE

A Mirror Court Indictment of Sovereign Intrusion, Procedural Defect, and Retaliatory Leverage


Metadata

  • Filed: 1 September 2025

  • Reference Code: SWANK–PASSPORTS–BIRTHCERTS

  • PDF Filename: 2025-09-01_SWANK_Addendum_Passports_BirthCertificates.pdf

  • Summary (1 line): Westminster’s fixation on U.S. passports and CRBAs weaponised against birthday contact; welfare irrelevant, jurisdiction defective.


I. What Happened

A court order directed me to surrender my children’s passports and birth certificates. Westminster Children’s Services has sought to weaponise that order — threatening to restrict Kingdom’s birthday contact unless documents are produced.

The documents are not in my possession. They were mailed to the children’s grandmother in the U.S. during the 2023 sewer gas crisis for safekeeping. They remain there.


II. What the Addendum Establishes

  • Quadruple Nationality: The children are U.S. citizens, U.K. citizens, Turks and Caicos Belongers, and Haitian citizens by descent.

  • Sovereign Property: U.S. passports and Consular Reports of Birth Abroad (CRBAs) are U.S. government property, not Westminster’s to demand.

  • Jurisdictional Error: Demanding “birth certificates” as if they were U.K. records is impossible; none exist.

  • Financial Security: U.S.-based trusts secure approx. $500,000 per child; possession of documents has no welfare impact.

  • Welfare Irrelevance: Passports are replaceable, not determinants of welfare.

  • Coercive Misuse: Conditioning birthday contact on document surrender is retaliatory and disproportionate.


III. Consequences

  • Practical Impossibility: The order cannot be complied with.

  • Procedural Defect: Forcing compliance with impossibility violates Article 6 ECHR.

  • Sovereign Intrusion: Attempting to control U.S. documents infringes U.S. jurisdiction.

  • Child Harm: Using birthdays as leverage harms emotional security.

  • Retaliatory Pattern: The demand follows audits, the June 23rd EPO, and other retaliatory escalations.


IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – welfare paramountcy breached by linking contact to documents.

  • Equality Act 2010 – birthdays weaponised against disability accommodations.

  • Article 6, ECHR – defective process via impossible compliance.

  • Article 8, ECHR – disproportionate interference with family life.

  • UNCRC Article 12 – children denied consultation about identity and nationality.

  • UNCRC Article 7 – right to nationality and family relations undermined.

  • International Law – interference with U.S. sovereign property engages diplomatic protections.


V. SWANK’s Position

This was not safeguarding. It was administrative fetishism weaponised against birthdays. Westminster sought to elevate paperwork above welfare, sovereignty, and proportionate law.


Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: passports are not playthings of Westminster. To weaponise birthdays through sovereign documents is not child welfare but colonial theatre. Impossibility was demanded, sovereignty was trespassed, birthdays were leveraged. This distortion is hereby archived.
