“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: On the Futility of Appeasement Following State-Sanctioned Child Seizure



⟡ SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue

Filed date: 21 July 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-FV-WCC0623
PDF Filename: 2025-07-21_SWANK_Declaration_Westminster_NoAppeasement.pdf
1-Line Summary: Westminster cannot repair what they have done — they will be held accountable until justice for the children is achieved.


I. What Happened

Let us be absolutely clear: there is nothing Westminster can do to appease me at this point. The threshold for reconciliation was obliterated the moment they harmed my children.

This is not a dispute.
It is a reckoning.

On 23 June 2025, five police officers — with full support from Westminster Children’s Services — stormed our home and forcibly removed four U.S. citizen children from the only safe, medically monitored, and emotionally attuned environment they had ever known.

They did not pause to consider:
– the children's diagnosed asthma,
– the trauma of being separated from their mother,
– the absence of lawful grounds for such a violent intrusion.

It was not protection.
It was an ambush.

My children experienced the worst possible event imaginable — and Westminster sanctioned it with silence, with arrogance, and with procedural deceit.

There is no excuse for Westminster's lack of maturity.  


II. What the Statement Establishes

This is no longer about appeals, discussions, or good faith cooperation.
This is escalation.

Escalation into every tribunal, every chamber, every court.
Escalation into diplomatic corridors, oversight agencies, international rights bodies, and — if necessary — every page of public history.

Westminster has long misunderstood the scale of their error.
They assumed I was one mother.
They forgot I am also a mechanism.

A procedural intermediary.
A federal rights advocate.
And now, an author of the record they will one day be forced to answer to.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because my children have not been allowed to speak —
So I will.
Because my children have not been allowed to feel —
So I will.

Because the fear that Westminster inflicted on them deserves a public, elegant, and irreversible response.

They created this archive.
I simply filed it.


IV. Violations

  • Article 8 ECHR – Unlawful interference with private and family life

  • Children Act 1989, Section 22 – Failure to consider welfare and voice of child

  • Equality Act 2010 – Ignored disability accommodations and safeguarding history

  • UNCRC Articles 3, 7, 9, 12, 19, 23, 24, 39 – Systematic violation of child rights

  • Common Law Misconduct – Abuse of public authority without accountability

  • Wilful Neglect – Failure to prevent foreseeable harm during seizure

  • Harassment and Retaliation – Ongoing procedural targeting of a protective mother


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not repairable.
No apology will be accepted.
No compromise will be reached.
No soft diplomacy will dilute the trauma my children endured.

It is now time for Westminster to feel what they refused to feel on 23 June —
Fear, consequence, and exposure.

This post is not vengeance.
It is jurisdictional memory.

You cannot take my children and expect silence.
You cannot harm a family and expect stillness.

We escalate.

Because you did.

In the Matter of Evidentiary Integrity and the International Rights of Four American Children (Polly Chromatic v. Westminster et al)



SWANK London Ltd. – Press Statement

Subject: Public Documentation of Safeguarding Misconduct, Disability Discrimination, and Judicial Retaliation in the United Kingdom

Issued by:
Polly Chromatic
Director, SWANK London Ltd.
Flat 37, 2 Porchester Gardens, London W2 6JL
director@swanklondon.com

Filed: 21 July 2025


Statement

SWANK London Ltd. confirms that a substantial evidentiary archive is now live and publicly accessible, documenting over a decade of unlawful safeguarding practices, disability-based discrimination, and procedural retaliation by multiple UK institutions — including Westminster City Council, the Metropolitan Police, NHS Trusts, and Family Court agents.

This documentation includes legal filings, court submissions, medical evidence, police reports, and contemporaneous logs of contact restriction, identity erasure, and harm to four U.S. citizen children diagnosed with eosinophilic asthma. These children were unlawfully removed from their mother on 23 June 2025 under an Emergency Protection Order based on false medical claims, later disproven by NHS Resolution.

Polly Chromatic, acting as a Litigant in Person and Procedural Intermediary, has submitted Judicial Reviews, N1 civil claims, and formal police reports against numerous professionals now under scrutiny. Multiple regulatory complaints are underway, including with Social Work England, CAFCASS, Ofsted, the Information Commissioner’s Office, and the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention.

The SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue is an independent public archive created to preserve this legal record in real time. It exists not for spectacle, but for survival — and to protect children and disabled parents from systemic harm, unlawful seizure, and evidentiary distortion.

We welcome ethical, trauma-informed reporting and are prepared to provide indexed briefings to interested journalists or legal correspondents upon request.

Re Contact (Token Compliance and Delayed Execution) [2025] SWANK 32 When statutory access was treated like a scheduling favour.



⟡ Virtual Contact Session: Post-EPO Access Obstruction & Institutional Soft-Footing ⟡
Chromatic v. The Calendar That Forgot the Court Order [2025] SWANK 32 — “They scheduled chaos. We logged clarity.”

Filed: 2 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/CONTACT-SUPPRESSION
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-02_RE_Virtual_Contact_2_July_2025_10am.pdf
Institutional correspondence confirming limited contact, failure to consult on scheduling, and soft procedural deflection post-EPO.


I. What Happened
On 2 July 2025, Polly Chromatic, litigant-in-person and mother of four, received correspondence from Samuel Brown, Deputy Service Manager at Westminster Children’s Services. The email confirmed a virtual contact session at 10:00am, but only after the time was unilaterally chosen without any consultation regarding her availability. Polly Chromatic confirmed she would attend — explicitly noting that this did not constitute a waiver of legal rights.

The session occurred under difficult emotional conditions, with technical issues logged, and a duration arbitrarily capped at 30 minutes — despite more than a week of denied contact and the court’s direction for two supervised sessions per week. Subsequent attempts to normalise this limited access were met with institutional tone-softening and no acknowledgement of prior procedural breach.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Contact was arranged reactively, not in compliance with legal direction.

  • The parent was not consulted before scheduling — a recurring procedural failure.

  • Session length and conditions failed to meet the urgency and emotional needs of the children.

  • Social workers positioned the session as a generous concession rather than a statutory obligation.

  • Contact planning remains arbitrarily controlled, with no meaningful accommodation of medical, legal, or emotional factors.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because when the court orders twice-weekly contact and none is provided for eight days, you are no longer managing risk — you are manufacturing it.
Because procedural courtesy does not erase structural delay.
Because every “soft” email is a hard-edged denial.
Because contact is not kindness. It is compliance.
And because SWANK does not negotiate rights. It logs who thought they were optional.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §34 – Duty to promote regular contact between parent and child

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Art. 8 – Right to family life

  • Equality Act 2010, §149 – Failure to give due regard to protected characteristics and access barriers

  • Family Procedure Rules, Pt. 12B – Disregard for contact framework post-care order

  • Judicial Direction, Case No: ZC25C50281 – Non-compliance with supervised contact mandate


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t contact. It was containment.
We do not accept unilateral scheduling disguised as coordination.
We do not accept 30-minute boxes as compensation for a week of silence.
We do not accept institutions mistaking procedure for permission.
She showed up because the law said so. They treated it like a calendar courtesy.

Chromatic v Westminster City Council – On the Arbitrary Suspension of Lawful Education and the Rise of Retaliatory Safeguarding



⟡ SWANK London Ltd. Evidentiary Archive

Filed Date: 16 July 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-S01-WESTMISTAKES
Court File Name: 2025-07-16_SWANK_Summary_Westminster_TopViolations.pdf
Filed by: Polly Chromatic
Summary: Documentation of the most severe and ongoing legal, ethical, and safeguarding violations committed by Westminster Children’s Services


❖ SWANK Summary:

“Top 7 Institutional Violations by Westminster Children’s Services”

A catalogue of legal, procedural, and ethical failures currently under formal and international review.


1. Interference with Lawful Home Education

Westminster disregarded a fully documented and academically rich home education programme that had been in place for years. Without consultation, they disrupted stable, legally compliant provision and imposed inferior tutoring while confiscating learning devices.
Breaches: Education Act 1996 (Section 7), Article 2 Protocol 1 ECHR


2. Enforced Digital and Developmental Isolation

The children were stripped of iPads, iPhones, and bicycles, denied access to outdoor activity and digital communication — despite no court order authorising such deprivation.
Breaches: Article 8 ECHR (private/family life), Children Act 1989 (Sections 22 & 47)


3. Suppression of Children’s Views (Especially Regal, Age 16)

Regal is Gillick competent and vocal. His objections were ignored. He was told he may not express views about court, family, or personal restrictions.
Breaches: UNCRC Articles 12 & 13, Gillick Competence, Article 10 ECHR (freedom of expression)


4. Institutional Retaliation Post-Filing

Every legal submission filed by the mother (e.g., PLO refusal, N244, Judicial Review) was met with escalated institutional interference — a pattern of retaliation and intimidation.
Breaches: Public Law Principles, Human Rights Act 1998, Equality Act 2010 (Disability Discrimination)


5. Improper Use of Emergency Protection Order

The EPO issued on 23 June 2025 was secured without credible evidence of immediate risk, and without full disclosure of procedural context or medical disability.
Breaches: Children Act 1989 (Section 44), Family Procedure Rules, Proportionality Doctrine


6. Sibling Separation and Excessive Surveillance

Regal is being held apart from his siblings for over ten hours a day; carers have enforced excessive monitoring. The emotional harm is visible and escalating.
Breaches: Children Act 1989 (Welfare Principle), UNCRC Article 9 (family unity)


7. Failure to Recognise and Respond to Dual Citizenship

Despite clear documentation, the Local Authority has not acknowledged the children’s U.S. citizenship or triggered proper consular notifications or international considerations.
Breaches: Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, UK-U.S. bilateral protections, Family Court jurisdictional duty


SWANK Position:

Westminster Children’s Services have demonstrated not just procedural failure but institutional misuse of authoritymisrepresentation of parental capability, and a pattern of retaliatory safeguarding. These actions constitute a sustained legal violation and are now under evidentiary review by the Family Court, the U.S. State Department, the United Nations, and professional regulatory bodies.

R (on the factual record of Polly Chromatic) v. The Narrative Manipulation of Section 20 Accommodation



LEGAL DOCUMENTATION OF RETALIATORY MISUSE – CHILDREN ACT 1989


📍 Accommodation Is Not Consent:

When Voluntary Care Is Weaponised by Local Authorities to Bypass the Law


Filed Date:
13 July 2025

Reference Code:
SWANK-C12-RETALIATION

Court File Name:
2025-07-13_Addendum_S20Misuse_RetaliationContext

Summary:
Local authorities may not disguise coercion as consent. Section 20 was designed to support families — not to punish them for asserting their rights.


I. What Happened

On multiple occasions prior to the Emergency Protection Order of 23 June 2025, Westminster Children’s Services presented the option of “voluntary accommodation” under Section 20 of the Children Act 1989. But it was not offered as voluntary care — it was used as a bureaucratic threat, thinly cloaked as legal language.

Rather than initiating lawful support, Westminster bypassed Part III duties and attempted to pressure me — a disabled mother with four disabled U.S. citizen children — into surrendering my rights, or risk escalation. That escalation came — not with facts or threshold, but with retaliation disguised as concern.

No consultation.
No services.
No threshold.
Just a script — and a courtroom.


II. What the Legal Text Establishes

According to the legal guidance outlined on page 634 of Bromley’s Family Law:

  • “Before determining what, if any, services to provide for a child, the local authority is required… to ascertain the child’s wishes and feelings…”
    → None of my children were consulted. They were misrepresented and silenced.

  • “Direct payments may be made to a person with parental responsibility for a disabled child…”
    → I was never offered this. My repeated, formal requests were ignored.

  • “Accommodation… was intended to be seen as a positive response to the needs of families.”
    → Instead, it was used as pretext for seizure — a warning shot, not a welfare plan.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because what happened is not a safeguarding anomaly — it’s a structural betrayal.

Section 20 is supposed to assist, not ambush. It is meant for families who request help, not those who are being groomed for removal. The local authority weaponised the existence of an option and called it consent. That is not policy — that is coercion.

And when the parent resisted, they took the children anyway.

That’s not a misunderstanding of the law. It’s an attempt to overwrite it.


IV. Violations Identified

  • ⚖️ Children Act 1989, s.20 – Presented coercively; consent was neither informed nor voluntary.

  • ⚖️ Failure of Part III statutory duties – No Section 17 support prior to escalation.

  • ⚖️ s.17(4A) – No effort made to understand or record children’s views.

  • ⚖️ Procedural Bad Faith – Misuse of legal instruments to generate an artificial appearance of disengagement.

  • ⚖️ Retaliatory Removal – Occurred in the direct wake of civil filings and police complaints.


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t safeguarding.
This was statutory theatre, staged by an agency hoping that intimidation would look like care.

They didn’t just misuse Section 20 — they rehearsed it.

Let the record show:
Section 20 must be voluntary.
Safeguarding must be lawful.
Removal must be justified.

None of these requirements were met.

SWANK hereby files this annotated documentation not as commentary, but as jurisdictional contempt — a velvet memorandum of precisely what the law says and exactly how Westminster ignored it.

Chromatic v Historical Amnesia [2025] SWANK 624 — “When They Were Warned, and Took Them Anyway”



🪞The Law That Warned Them

Filed Under: Historical Precedent, Ignored
Where Early Intervention Was Warned Against — But Happened Anyway


Filed by: Polly Chromatic
Filed date: 13 July 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-E17-BROMLEYTHRESHOLD
Court File Name: 2025-07-13_Addendum_Bromley624_EarlyInterventionViolation.pdf
Summary: The legal page Westminster should have read — and didn’t.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Westminster Children’s Services removed all four of my children under an Emergency Protection Order (EPO) with no notice, no threshold, and no evidence of imminent risk.
It was not safeguarding. It was retaliation dressed as urgency.

This removal followed:

  • A discredited intoxication allegation

  • A history of lawful complaints and civil filings

  • Multiple warnings that state overreach would be challenged and documented

Prior to the EPO, I emailed social worker Kirsty Hornal directly, referencing the infamous Orkney case — where children were wrongly removed based on unfounded abuse claims. That scandal is not forgotten. It is taught in safeguarding trainingcited in legal textbooks, and written into precedent.
And still — she proceeded as though it never happened.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

On page 624 of Bromley’s Family Law (12th ed), the principle is unambiguous:

“If intervention is too early then family life will be needlessly violated to the detriment of the child and the family.”

This is not advisory.
This is judicial instruction.

Bromley cites:

  • The Cleveland crisis – 200+ children wrongly removed

  • The Orkney case – fabricated claims, overturned removals

  • Rochdale v A [1991] – condemnation of premature intervention

These are not obscure footnotes.
They are cornerstone case studies in safeguarding ethics.

I emailed Kirsty Hornal these facts — before the EPO was issued.
She was warned.
She was documented.
She was reminded of the legal history.
And she chose ignorance over precedent.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because legal history exists for a reason.
Because knowledge is not a luxury for mothers under attack — it’s a shield.
Because when state agencies remove children after being warned of precedent, they are not safeguarding — they are staging justification.

This page from Bromley is a time capsule of safeguarding abuse.
Its warnings were not hidden — they were emailedquotedfiled.

Westminster did not fail to consult it.
They failed because they ignored it.


IV. Violations Documented

  • Children Act 1989 – Misuse of Section 44 (no lawful threshold)

  • ECHR Article 8 – Family life violated without necessity or proportionality

  • Procedural Fairness – No consultation, no assessment, no legal grounds

  • Institutional Recklessness – Proceeding despite legal warnings

  • Disregard for Precedent – Orkney, Cleveland, and Rochdale all ignored


V. SWANK’s Position

You cannot remove children based on a feeling.
You cannot proceed when you've been warned by both precedent and parent.
And you cannot call it lawful when even Bromley’s textbook told you not to do it.

This page is now filedannotatedreferenced, and cited:

  • In court

  • In misconduct referrals

  • In the SWANK archive

  • And soon — in legal history, where it belongs

Re the Directions (Filed by the Litigant, not the Court) [2025] SWANK 26 When the mother wrote the agenda.



⟡ Urgent Directions Request Re: Emergency Protection Order (23 June 2025) ⟡
Chromatic v. Judicial Drift [2025] SWANK 26 — “Where the silence was louder than the seizure.”

Filed: 26 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/FAMILYCOURT/DIRECTIONS-REQ
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-26_Urgent_Directions_Request_Bundle_Submitted_in_Challenge_to_Emergency_Protection_Order_SWANK_London_Ltd.pdf
Formal request for judicial directions following unlawful EPO; bundle filed electronically and by post.


I. What Happened
On the evening of 26 June 2025Polly Chromatic, acting as litigant-in-person via SWANK London Ltd., issued an Urgent Directions Request to the Central Family Court. This followed the filing of a full evidentiary bundle contesting an Emergency Protection Order (EPO) issued on 23 June. The bundle was submitted electronically, with hard copies dispatched by post. Core requests included: listing the matter urgently, confirming receipt, and acknowledging disability access requirements and U.S. consular involvement. The documents were submitted with full legal formatting, indexed via SWANK’s evidentiary reference system.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The Court has not initiated timely proceedings following a coercive emergency intervention.

  • A U.S. citizen and disabled mother has been forced to litigate under duress while coordinating consular protections.

  • The response burden has been unilaterally transferred to the applicant — who now drafts directions for the Court.

  • No formal disability accommodations or procedural fairness safeguards were put in place following the EPO.

  • The litigant's organisation, not the institution, initiated order, structure, and lawful communication.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the EPO was fast. The Court’s reaction was not.
Because urgent seizures demand urgent hearings — not bureaucratic backspacing.
Because when a disabled parent must draft your directions list and deliver the bundle herself, the institution is no longer neutral.
Because proximity to power does not excuse procedural absence.
And because every time SWANK is asked to “wait,” it documents what happened while waiting.


IV. Violations

  • Family Procedure Rules 2010, Pt. 1 – Duty to deal with cases justly and without delay

  • Children Act 1989, §44 – Failure to review EPO with due haste

  • Equality Act 2010, §20 – Omission of required disability accommodations

  • HRA 1998, Art. 6 & Art. 8 – Denial of fair hearing and interference with family life

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Art. 36 – Failure to notify U.S. authorities adequately


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t oversight. It was jurisdictional neglect, staged as scheduling.
We do not accept delay masked as deliberation.
We do not accept silence as judicial impartiality.
We do not accept systems that seize children within 24 hours, but stall when asked to answer for it.
SWANK does not wait patiently. It archives everything that happens during the pause.
What the court failed to provide, the applicant constructed.

Re the Four Minors (Procedural Vanishing & Post-Factum Oversight) [2025] SWANK 28 When CAFCASS arrived after the children were gone.



⟡ Notification of Procedural Misuse & Unlawful Emergency Removal of Four U.S. Citizen Children ⟡
Chromatic v. The Fiction of Safeguarding [2025] SWANK 28 — “When procedure is power, silence is complicity.”

Filed: 28 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/CAFCASS/EPO-ALERT
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-28_Formal_Notification_Procedural_Misuse_and_Unlawful_Emergency_Removal_of_Four_Children.pdf
Formal notice to CAFCASS disputing lawful basis of child removal under EPO; U.S. consular, disability, and misconduct dimensions engaged.


I. What Happened
On 28 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, acting as mother and litigant-in-person via SWANK London Ltd, issued formal notification to CAFCASS regarding the unlawful emergency removal of her four children on 23 June 2025.
The notice identifies significant procedural concerns, including:

  • No formal communication with CAFCASS prior to, during, or post-removal

  • No clarity on whether a Guardian has been assigned

  • Involvement of named officers (Hornal, Brown, Westminster/RBKC) known to be under professional misconduct referrals

  • Known disability-related needs and U.S. citizenship protections ignored at the point of intervention

Confirmation was demanded on CAFCASS’s role, Guardian assignment (if any), and a guarantee of independence from tainted assessments.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • An Emergency Protection Order was executed without CAFCASS visibility or accountability

  • Four U.S. citizen minors were removed without safeguarding oversight or neutrality

  • A disabled mother was procedurally bypassed and her exemptions disregarded

  • Officers currently under formal misconduct review have remained active contributors to decisions

  • The institution intended to monitor safeguarding failed to monitor its own absence


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because what happened on 23 June wasn’t “emergency removal” — it was reputational self-defence.
Because CAFCASS cannot claim independence while remaining institutionally silent.
Because children should not be caught in retaliatory process theatre staged by adults with unresolved power.
Because disability isn’t a technicality. It’s jurisdictional.
And because no Guardian can be neutral if they inherit the lies of officers under referral.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §41 – Guardian duty to represent the interests of the child

  • Equality Act 2010, §§20 & 149 – Failure to honour reasonable adjustments and prevent discrimination

  • ECHR, Art. 8 – Interference with family life without adequate procedural protection

  • UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Art. 12 – Equal recognition before the law

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Art. 36 – Failure to engage consular safeguards for U.S. minors


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was strategic disappearance under colour of law.
We do not accept removals executed without procedural guardrails.
We do not accept “emergency” as a permanent excuse.
We do not accept CAFCASS oversight that begins after the damage.
The children were not shielded. The officers were.
SWANK has filed the record. CAFCASS now decides whether it joins the timeline — or becomes part of the problem.

Re the Children (Unlawful Seizure & Procedural Panic) [2025] SWANK 26 A bundle submitted. A façade collapsed.



⟡ Emergency Protection Order Submission, Rebutted in Full ⟡
Chromatic v. Panic-Led Procedure [2025] SWANK 26 — “You filed an EPO. I filed a canon.”

Filed: 26 June 2025

Full evidentiary bundle rebutting an EPO imposed on a disabled U.S. parent mid-litigation.


I. What Happened
On 26 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, acting as litigant-in-person and via her legal proxy, SWANK London Ltd, submitted a comprehensive evidentiary bundle in response to an Emergency Protection Order (EPO) dated 23 June 2025. The submission includes:

  • Core discharge and parental applications (EPO Discharge, C100, C2s)

  • Medical and legal records, jurisdictional defences, public record contradictions

  • A complete Statement of Truth, indexed cover sheets, and LiP declaration

  • Supporting documentation detailing targeted safeguarding misuse during live litigation
    The bundle was transmitted to court and relevant state actors, including Westminster and the U.S. Embassy. All correspondence was formally redirected through SWANK.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The EPO was issued without lawful cause, proportionality, or procedural integrity.

  • Safeguarding mechanisms have been manipulated to shield agencies from reputational damage.

  • A disabled U.S. citizen was targeted mid-litigation, not due to risk — but because she resisted.

  • Multiple state agents knowingly withheld corrective actions while escalating coercive control.

  • The response was not just disproportionate. It was choreographed.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because Emergency Protection Orders are not tools for retaliation theatre.
Because filing a 100+ page evidentiary bundle within 72 hours of unlawful seizure is not just legal competence — it is aesthetic vengeance.
Because silence from state actors when confronted with truth is not neutrality. It’s consent.
And because SWANK does not observe. SWANK intervenes — archivally, legally, historically.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §44 — Misuse of emergency powers without risk-based evidence

  • Equality Act 2010, §§6, 20, 149 — Discrimination and failure to adjust for disability

  • ECHR, Art. 8 — Interference with family life under false authority

  • Human Rights Act 1998, §6 — Breach of duty by public bodies

  • GDPR/DPA 2018, Art. 5 — Procedural concealment and inaccurate record use


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t an intervention. It was an ambush wrapped in stationery.
We do not accept orders filed faster than facts.
We do not accept safeguarding used to suppress litigation.
We do not accept Westminster’s strategic ineptitude masquerading as concern.
What was issued on 23 June was not protection. It was reputational retaliation.
And what followed on 26 June — was evidentiary ruin.

Re Access (Medication, Devices, and Emotional Stability) [2025] SWANK 37 They removed the children and left their prescriptions behind.



⟡ Urgent Request for Contact, Medical Access & Personal Devices – Case ZCXXXXXX ⟡
Chromatic v. The Bureaucracy That Forgot the Children Had Lungs [2025] SWANK 37 — “You took the children. You do not get to take the inhalers too.”

Filed: 1 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/ZCXXXXXXXX/EMERGENCY-DELIVERY
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-01_ZCXXXXXXXX_Urgent_Request_Contact_Medication_Delivery_Personal_Devices.pdf
Formal request for immediate contact, asthma medication access, and return of essential personal devices post-EPO.


I. What Happened
On 1 July 2025, Polly Chromatic issued an urgent formal request to Westminster Children’s Services, seeking immediate arrangements for:

  1. Direct video or phone contact with her four children

  2. Delivery of essential asthma medications and medical supplies

  3. Retrieval of the children’s personal devices — including iPads and iPhones — to restore communication, learning, and emotional stability

This request followed the Emergency Protection Order of 23 June and documented rising concern over medical noncompliance and severance of child-parent communication. A neutral third party was requested to facilitate the arrangements due to the known triggering nature of continued contact with named officers.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Children with chronic medical needs were removed with no continuity-of-care plan in place

  • Emotional contact has been obstructed without lawful justification or proportionality

  • Basic therapeutic tools (devices, photos, comfort items) have been withheld

  • Requests have been procedurally delayed while the children’s psychological and respiratory stability worsens

  • Professionals continue to insert themselves into mediation despite documented psychiatric objections


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because in 2025, children should not have to wait three working days for a rescue inhaler.
Because institutional pride is not a sufficient reason to obstruct maternal contact.
Because iPads are not luxury items — they are neurological stabilisers in digital form.
Because children are not safer without their medication, without their mother, and without a phone.
And because the inhalers, the calls, and the devices are not accessories — they are safeguards you confiscated.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §§22, 34 – Obligation to safeguard medical continuity and facilitate contact

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Art. 8 – Right to maintain family connection and health-related access

  • Equality Act 2010, §20 – Failure to accommodate parental disability in procedural design

  • NICE Guidelines (NG80, NG26) – Neglect of emergency asthma protocols in children under care

  • UNCRC, Articles 9, 24 – Denial of contact and healthcare continuity for minors under state protection


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t just removal. It was de-equipping children of survival tools.
We do not accept a care framework that cancels asthma care without consultation.
We do not accept state custody becoming a black box of silence and lost belongings.
We do not accept contact that must be begged for in triplicate.
The medication is overdue. The contact is overdue. The decency is long expired.
SWANK has filed. Westminster has three days. After that, the archive escalates.

Chromatic v. Westminster Borough & Others [2025] SWANK 26: A Case on the Tactical Misuse of Safeguarding Frameworks



⟡ Emergency Protection Order Challenge Submission ⟡
Chromatic v. False Authority [2025] SWANK 26 — “Retaliation is not safeguarding. It’s strategy.”

Filed: 26 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/FAMILYCOURT/EPO-DISPUTE
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-26_Urgent_Family_Court_Bundle_Submission_SWANK_London_Ltd_on_Behalf_of_Ms_Simlett.pdf
Full evidentiary bundle disputing the legitimacy of an EPO against a disabled U.S. mother.


I. What Happened
On 26 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, acting as litigant-in-person and via SWANK London Ltd., submitted a complete evidentiary bundle regarding an Emergency Protection Order issued on 23 June 2025. The submission includes core discharge applications, medical evidence, jurisdictional arguments, public record documentation, and procedural breach notifications. A Master Index and Statement of Truth were included. Recipients included Family Division judiciary, Westminster officials, the U.S. Embassy, and other regulatory bodies. Postal and digital copies were dispatched in parallel. All communication has been redirected through SWANK London Ltd. for formal archival.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The Emergency Protection Order was procedurally improper and unlawfully motivated.

  • A pattern of safeguarding as reprisal emerges, targeting a disabled mother litigating against local authority failings.

  • Public record documentation reveals material contradictions in local authority statements.

  • No evidence of immediate risk. Instead: strategic containment, jurisdictional manipulation, and institutional panic.

  • Disabled litigants are expected to remain disorganised. This bundle dismantles that presumption.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because emergency powers, once invoked in bad faith, become legal instruments of punishment.
Because this mother has children, not leverage — and courts should know the difference.
Because silence from Westminster isn't oversight. It’s orchestration.
Because the safeguarding framework has been corrupted by reputational fear.
And because SWANK does not accept ‘emergency’ as a pretext for erasure.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §44 — Improper invocation of Emergency Protection Order powers

  • Equality Act 2010, §149 — Failure to consider impact on disabled parent

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Sch.1, Art. 8 — Interference with family life without lawful justification

  • Data Protection Act 2018, Pt.3 — Use of misleading records as justification for intervention


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was surveillance masquerading as concern.
We do not accept unlawful orders rushed through with theatrical urgency.
We do not accept the weaponisation of statutory duties to silence whistleblowers.
We do not accept the architecture of panic dressed up as child protection.
This bundle has been submitted not for consideration — but for confrontation.

Definitive evidentiary bundle refuting the basis of a 23 June Emergency Protection Order.


I. What Happened
On 26 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, acting as litigant-in-person and via SWANK London Ltd, issued a completed and final evidentiary bundle addressing the Emergency Protection Order of 23 June 2025.
This submission includes:

  • Section A: Core legal applications (EPO Discharge, C100, C2)

  • Sections B–H: Supporting medical, jurisdictional, and evidentiary materials

  • A Master Index, Statement of Truth, and declaration of litigant status

  • Public record documentation refuting Westminster narratives

  • Procedural breaches catalogued for litigation, not review

Communications have been lawfully redirected through SWANK. Postal delivery is in progress.
Receipt is demanded — silence will be treated as tactical omission and archived accordingly.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The EPO was issued on reputation management, not risk.

  • Safeguarding was deployed to undermine legal resistance — not to protect children.

  • Local authority actors have knowingly misrepresented facts across internal communications.

  • A disabled parent, actively litigating, was targeted mid-process — not for child welfare, but for institutional damage control.

  • No meaningful threshold was met. But panic dressed itself in “procedure.”


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because state power, when left unrecorded, metastasises.
Because EPOs, when filed without foundation, are not protective — they are performative.
Because the safeguarding of U.S. minors cannot be entrusted to British bureaucracy gripped by optics.
Because disabled mothers are expected to beg, not file.
Because every page of this bundle dismantles that expectation.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §44 – No sufficient basis for emergency intervention

  • Equality Act 2010, §§6, 20, 149 – Failure to adjust; discriminatory treatment of disabled litigant

  • ECHR, Art. 8 – Unlawful interference with family life

  • Human Rights Act 1998, §6 – Public authority breaches of statutory duty

  • GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018, Art. 5 – Reliance on inaccurate and unrectified record


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was sabotage masquerading as statutory care.
We do not accept theatrics filed as legal orders.
We do not accept professional cowardice hidden behind acronyms.
We do not accept Westminster's silence as anything but consent.
This is not a family matter. This is a jurisdictional emergency.
The bundle stands. The evidence is filed. The record will not be redacted.

Chromatic v Westminster & RBKC Children’s Services — Institutional Retaliation, Procedural Misconduct, and Unlawful Child Removal (2025) EWFC ZC25C50281



Hearing Statement for the Honourable Court — 11 July 2025

Case No: ZCXXXXXXX

Polly Chromatic, Litigant in Person and Director of SWANK London Ltd.


Preliminary Exordium:

May it please the Honourable Court,

I, Polly Chromatic, custodian and advocate of four remarkably gifted progeny, each endowed with dual citizenship of the United States of America and Her Majesty’s United Kingdom — Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir — do present myself today, armed with erudition and indefatigable resolve.

My academic repertoire spans the rigorous fields of Computer Science, Psychology, and Human Development, crowned with several additional scholarly accolades. Such a constellation of expertise informs both my professional engagement in ethical Artificial Intelligence — a discipline steeped in the highest principles of probity, fairness, and human dignity — and my scrupulous devotion to nurturing my children’s intellectual and moral fabric.

I am also the Director of SWANK London Ltd., a bastion of institutional accountability and archival diligence, from whence I orchestrate my crusade for justice whilst maintaining a vigilant presence within my household.

My consort, domiciled in the Turks and Caicos Islands, remains a collaborative partner in the stewardship of our children’s upbringing despite our physical separation.


I. Procedural Context and Foundational Background

The onset of RBKC Children’s Services’ intervention coincided most regrettably with my family’s displacement caused by grievous sewer gas poisoning — an environmental calamity that marred our prior abode and occasioned prolonged residence in a transient hotel. On the very day of our relocation to a new domicile, the local authority precipitously escalated the matter to a Child Protection Plan, under the specious pretext of my temporarily diminished capacity for verbal discourse, despite my repeated entreaties for written communication — all summarily dismissed.

Westminster Children’s Services later usurped responsibility, demoting the case to a Child in Need plan by October 2024, subsequent to a parade of six social workers whose assessments proved void of tangible safeguarding concerns.

Kirsty Hornal entered the fray in October 2024, bringing with her a relentless insistence on verbal communication notwithstanding my persistent respiratory afflictions — sequelae of said poisoning.


II. Institutional Accountability and Procedural Dissonance

From the genesis of Westminster Children’s Services’ involvement in February 2024, I have tirelessly demanded clarity, transparency, and lawful basis for their prolonged intervention. Yet, rather than ameliorating our plight, these agents have exacerbated my family’s injuries.

Despite my documented health challenges — including debilitating asthma exacerbated by the aforementioned toxic exposure — my entreaties for accommodation were met with scorn and allegations of mental instability and harassment.

To shield my family, I have resorted to formal legal recourse, filing:

  • A police report against Ms. Hornal (13 February 2025);

  • An N1 claim implicating Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services (3 March 2025);

  • A Judicial Review contesting procedural impropriety (28 April 2025);

  • A criminal referral for malfeasance against Ms. Hornal and Mr. Brown (21 June 2025).

Yet, obstruction persists, and the paternal figure of my children remains unjustly excluded, a travesty of procedural fairness.


III. Retaliation, Disregard, and Communication Abjection

Ms. Hornal’s last domicile visitation occurred on 13 February 2025. Thereafter, a nefarious Public Law Outline letter, dated 15 April 2025, levied baseless allegations of narcotic misuse against me, demanding an intrusive hair follicle analysis — a profound departure from her erstwhile commendations of my children’s scholarly accomplishments.

Scheduled judicial dialogue set for 2 May 2025 was summarily aborted, whilst Ms. Hornal’s vexatious insistence on invasive visits continued unabated, despite my protestations regarding the deleterious health consequences.

Threats of supervision orders emerged mid-June, accompanied by further procedural chicanery and, most alarmingly, episodes of stalking by an unidentified male subsequent to my public disclosures on SWANK London Ltd., prompting yet another police report.


IV. Breach of Duty of Care and Ethical Obligation

My earnest desire is singular: to nurture and educate my children in a secure and loving environment. Yet, the intransigence and caprice of Ms. Hornal have consigned me to untenable predicaments, accused both of disengagement and mental instability when prioritizing my children’s wellbeing.

Our household endures the scars of egregious environmental harm, including the fatality of our cherished pet and my own vocal and respiratory impairments.

Westminster Children’s Services has egregiously disregarded these vulnerabilities, further imperiling my family’s health through negligent conduct and retaliatory removal.

Such acts constitute not mere neglect but a flagrant dereliction of duty and moral turpitude, precipitating profound suffering.


V. Institutional Retaliation and the Subversion of Safeguarding

Following my initiation of legal claims, Westminster Children’s Services hastened to deploy an Emergency Protection Order, wielded as a sword against my family.

Ms. Hornal and Mr. Brown have compounded injury by excluding the paternal presence, cancelling indispensable medical appointments, unilaterally altering healthcare provisions, and orchestrating vexatious child care arrangements for my children through collusion with erstwhile legal counsel, Alan Mullem.

My establishment of SWANK London Ltd. serves as a bulwark against these injustices, safeguarding the dignity and rights of my family.

Bereft of lawful cause, my children languish in isolation, denied normalcy and denied the joys of childhood pursuits — from acting and modelling opportunities to wholesome outdoor recreations and familial laughter.

The egregious dismissal of their medical needs foreshadows imminent health crises, including asthma exacerbations.

These punitive measures constitute an affront to genuine safeguarding and inflict grievous developmental and emotional wounds.


VI. Ethical Parenting and Philosophical Convictions

My household stands as a citadel of principled living, where rigorous standards of health, education, respect, and justice prevail.

My pedagogic ethos is profoundly holistic, nurturing every facet of my children’s being—intellectual, emotional, physical, ethical, and spiritual—with bespoke and strength-focused approaches that cultivate inquisitiveness and critical acumen.

Their education is a tapestry of rigorous scholarship—spanning the sciences, mathematics, humanities—and lived experience, infused with ethical reflection and global conscientiousness.

I champion resilience, emotional intelligence, and leadership, preparing my progeny to navigate and enrich a complex, interconnected world.


VII. Entreaty for Judicial Relief

In light of the foregoing, I most respectfully implore this Honourable Court to:

  • Immediately restore my children to my care forthwith, without deferral for ongoing proceedings;

  • Excise Ms. Hornal and Mr. Brown, along with Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services, from this matter, given manifest conflicts and improprieties;

  • Mandate a rigorous and transparent inquiry into the practices of Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services, in view of the systemic failings and retaliatory conduct;

  • Command full disclosure of all safeguarding and medical documentation pertinent to this case;

  • Ensure future involvement is entrusted solely to culturally competent, impartial professionals, upholding the highest standards of equity and justice.


VIII. Peroration

This grievous saga of unlawful removal, procedural dereliction, and retaliatory malfeasance has inflicted profound harm upon my family’s health, wellbeing, and dignity.

I beseech this Court to uphold justice and restore the sanctity of my family unit with all due haste.

I thank the Court for its attention and solemn duty.

Re: The Jurisprudence of Clinical Abandonment



⟡ Re: The Doctrine of Clinical Abandonment ⟡
A definitive record of how the state converted medical necessity into administrative afterthought.

Filed: 1 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/ROYALCOURTS/URGENT-MEDICAL-DISCLOSURE
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-01_UrgentNotice_MedicalNeglectAsthmaDisclosure.pdf
Emergency notice documenting medication non-disclosure and escalating clinical negligence.


I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four children with medically diagnosed asthma were removed under an Emergency Protection Order. No medication accompanied them, no clinician was identified, and no disclosure has been made to confirm whether their prescriptions were ever provided. For over a week, their primary caregiver has been met with a silence so absolute it would impress a medieval order of contemplative monks.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That statutory duties of medical continuity were treated as optional ceremonial flourishes.

  • That the known respiratory vulnerabilities of the children were ignored with a bureaucratic serenity bordering on nihilism.

  • That no paediatric assessment, asthma action plan, or basic clinical protocol has been confirmed.

  • That this sequence of omissions represents not an accident, but a culture of procedural apathy elevated to doctrine.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the right to life and health is neither theoretical nor contingent upon institutional convenience. Because the aesthetic of “we will look into it eventually” is an insufficient remedy to life-threatening risk. Because every instance of medical abandonment must be chronicled with a formality commensurate to the danger it imposes.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 (Duty to safeguard and promote welfare—casually disregarded)

  • Article 3 ECHR (Freedom from degrading treatment—systematically impaired)

  • Article 8 ECHR (Right to family life—administratively suspended)

  • Equality Act 2010 (Failure to accommodate disability)

  • UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (Articles 6 & 24—healthcare as a non-negotiable entitlement)


V. SWANK’s Position
This was not safeguarding. It was clinical abandonment, artfully disguised by bureaucratic solemnity.
We do not accept the quiet normalisation of healthcare omission.
We will document every act—scrupulously, permanently, unimpressed.

Chromatic v. The Cult of Administrative Silence



⟡ In re: The Jurisprudence of Vanishing Care ⟡
An object lesson in how institutional negligence is laundered through the ceremonial language of “protection.”

Filed: 2 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/ROYALCOURTS/STATEMENT-REUNIFICATION
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-02_Statement_ReunificationRequest.pdf
Formal statement repudiating the practice of forced removal by bureaucratic fiat and sustained indifference.


I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four clinically fragile children were extracted from their home by state actors wielding an Emergency Protection Order as both shield and cudgel. In the subsequent eight days, their mother was granted precisely zero details regarding their location, health, or psychological status. Contact was not merely denied; it was relegated to the realm of administrative afterthought.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That a legal instrument designed for acute crisis was reimagined as a convenient mechanism for indefinite disappearance.

  • That medical and psychological continuity were treated as quaint notions rather than statutory imperatives.

  • That procedural dignity was supplanted by the unhurried spectacle of official silence.

  • That each day of separation inflicted compounding harm, meticulously ignored in service of bureaucratic comfort.

  • That Article 3 and Article 8 ECHR were cited only in the abstract, never honoured in practice.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because when public bodies behave as though accountability is optional and transparency a courtesy, documentation becomes the last jurisdictional safeguard. Because every instance of forced estrangement in procedural drag warrants its own archival indictment. Because polite euphemisms do not obscure the lived reality of state-imposed abandonment.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 (Section 34: Statutory duty to facilitate and promote contact)

  • Article 3 ECHR (Prohibition of degrading treatment—breached with habitual finesse)

  • Article 8 ECHR (Right to family life—curated into oblivion)

  • Equality Act 2010 (Failure to adjust for disability in proceedings)


V. SWANK’s Position
This was not safeguarding. It was bureaucratic sequestration performed with the aesthetic of solemn competence and the substance of indifference.
We do not accept the reduction of children’s welfare to an administrative inconvenience.
We will document every performance—relentlessly, elegantly, and with due contempt.

Re The Doctrine of Prolonged Silence

Reference: SWANK/ROYALCOURTS/FAM-CONTACT-ENFORCEMENT-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-03_Application_ContactEnforcementRequest.pdf
Urgent application demanding the restoration of contact with medically vulnerable children.


I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four American children were extracted under an Emergency Protection Order. In the ensuing days, no contact was arranged, no updates were provided, and no evidence was offered that the children’s asthma or trauma histories were being addressed. Repeated requests were met with bureaucratic indifference so absolute it felt almost avant-garde.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That the state can remove children with startling alacrity and then simply fail to remember them.

  • That procedural formalities were performed with all the conviction of a damp cravat.

  • That prolonged medical discontinuity was treated as a regrettable footnote, rather than a safeguarding catastrophe.

  • That contact was neither refused nor arranged—merely suspended in a fog of institutional absentmindedness.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the default posture of “We’ll tell you nothing, indefinitely” is not child protection. Because the systemic failure to distinguish between necessary intervention and performative opacity is not merely error—it is structural contempt. Because every precedent of unchallenged separation deserves a polished record of objection.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 (Section 34: Duty to promote contact)

  • Article 8 ECHR (Right to family life)

  • Article 3 ECHR (Freedom from degrading treatment)

  • Equality Act 2010 (Duty to accommodate disability in proceedings)


V. SWANK’s Position
This was not safeguarding. It was sequestration without candour.
We do not accept the normalisation of state silence as a proxy for child protection.
We will document every iteration—punctilious, archivally irrefutable.

I. What Happened
On 23 June 2025, four asthmatic children were seized under an Emergency Protection Order, spirited away without plan or continuity, and effectively placed in communicative exile. For more than a week, their mother—having supplied ample clinical and trauma documentation—was afforded no updates, no contact, and no reassurance. The institutional response was a silence so cavernous it bordered on performance art.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That a statutory intervention was imposed with the procedural delicacy of a thrown brick.

  • That the children’s medical and psychological vulnerabilities were not simply overlooked but actively disregarded.

  • That each passing day of state-sanctioned estrangement compounded the clinical and emotional risk.

  • That “safeguarding” was invoked as a slogan, never a substantiated practice.

  • That such indifference, when systematised, becomes an instrument of degradation rather than protection.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because a seven-day lacuna in care and contact is not a clerical accident—it is the logical end stage of bureaucratic self-importance untempered by evidence or compassion. Because the rhetorical invocation of “the child’s best interests” cannot disguise the legal and ethical dereliction this silence represents. Because in twenty years’ time, no one should be permitted to claim they didn’t know.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 (Section 34: Right to contact and duty to promote contact)

  • Article 3 ECHR (Freedom from degrading treatment)

  • Article 8 ECHR (Right to respect for family life)

  • Equality Act 2010 (Failure to accommodate disability)


V. SWANK’s Position
This was not safeguarding. It was custodial oblivion, refined by inaction.
We do not accept the normalisation of procedural disappearance.
We will document each occurrence—punctilious, unrepentant, and unimpressed.

Chromatic v Institutional Withholding: Asthmatic Silence and the EPO Abyss



⟡ Urgent Disclosure Refused: Four Asthmatic Children, Zero Medication ⟡
“Where a clinical handover should be, there is only contempt.”


Filed: 1 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/COURT/URGENT-MEDICAL-DISCLOSURE
📎 Download PDF: 2025-07-01_SWANK_UrgentNotice_MedicalNeglectAsthmaDisclosure.pdf
Summary: Emergency notice to the Family Court citing asthma-related medical neglect following EPO removal.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, four American children — each clinically diagnosed with asthma — were extracted under an Emergency Protection Order. No medical handover. No inhalers. No confirmation of care.

Their mother, Polly Chromatic (known professionally as the Applicant and Director of SWANK London Ltd.), was given no lawful update. Not a dosage, not a name, not a single confirmation that her children were breathing under competent supervision.

The children’s entire medication regime vanished the moment they were removed. There was no inquiry, no packing of prescriptions, and — as of this filing — no evidence that medical continuity has resumed.

On 1 July 2025, SWANK London Ltd issued this urgent safeguarding notice. It is not a request. It is a demand: Where is the asthma care? Who is the clinician? What plan exists?


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Gross institutional negligence of known disability conditions

  • Breach of duty under Children Act 1989: no medical oversight post-removal

  • Systemic silence: a blackout on health data and parental access

  • Violation of Articles 3 & 8 of the ECHR

  • Unlawful discrimination under the Equality Act 2010

  • Weaponised safeguarding now causing foreseeable medical harm


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the withholding of medical disclosure for vulnerable children isn’t a policy lapse — it’s an atrocity with a cover page.

This isn’t bureaucracy. It’s clinical abandonment. The kind no hospital board would tolerate, but which appears routine in the Family Court ecosystem.

SWANK London Ltd logs this not as commentary, but as evidentiary proof that medically vulnerable children are now being placed into unknown conditions without the most basic procedural dignity — a health update.

This is how neglect becomes normalised. This is how a child stops breathing — and no one notices until the archive is cited at inquest.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 22: Duties to safeguard and promote welfare of looked-after children

  • ECHR Article 3 – Freedom from inhuman or degrading treatment

  • ECHR Article 8 – Right to family life and access to personal medical data

  • Equality Act 2010 – Sections 6 & 15: Disability-based discrimination

  • UNCRC Articles 6 & 24 – Rights to life, survival, and access to healthcare


V. SWANK’s Position

We are not unclear. We are documenting.

The Court now possesses formal notice of institutional failure. If these children suffer preventable harm, it will not be for lack of documentation. It will be because of it.

This isn’t just a case file. It’s an oxygen warning. And we file it with the full weight of velvet jurisdiction.

Westminster City Council v. Chromatic & Others (Children: Fabricated Non-Engagement, Procedural Misconduct & Disability Retaliation) [2025] SWANK 0623



⟡ “A Wealth of Conversations Without Engagement” ⟡
⟡ Judgment Delivered in the Absence of Accuracy, Access, or Asthma Medication ⟡

Filed: 29 June 2025

A formal record of District Judge Barrie’s written judgment authorising child removal under fabricated claims of maternal abandonment and procedural non-engagement.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, District Judge Barrie granted Emergency Interim Care Orders for four American children—Romeo, Prince, King, and Honour—based on a written judgment presented by Westminster City Council.

The mother, Polly Chromatic (known legally as Noelle Jasmine Meline Bonne Annee Simlett), was not present. The judgment accused her of “non-engagement,” “transient living,” and refusal to cooperate, despite overwhelming evidence of documented communication, lawful procedural filings, and medically necessary email-only correspondence.

The judgment claims the children were “not seen since February,” despite multiple medical appointments, educational updates, and Family Court filings by the mother throughout March–June 2025.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The Local Authority knowingly misrepresented a disability accommodation as "non-engagement"

  • The Family Court issued a life-altering order based on unverified hearsay

  • U.S. citizen children were forcibly removed without notice or procedural fairness

  • The judgment relied on a “welfare check” that never took place, then punished the mother for it

  • high-conflict narrative was constructed entirely by professionals retaliating against legal challenge

  • Rebuttals, Judicial Review filings, and direct evidence of harm were ignored


III. Why SWANK Logged It

This moment is pivotal: it is not merely a bad ruling. It is a state-authored fabrication, written as a pretext for custody seizure.

The judgment reads not as judicial scrutiny but as Local Authority dictation, rubber-stamped by a system allergic to disabled mothers and procedural integrity.

SWANK logs this document as a case study in retaliatory child removal masquerading as child protection — where written policy was replaced by silent punishment, and courtrooms became echo chambers of unchecked assumption.

This judgment wasn’t legal reasoning.
It was legal ventriloquism — and the script was written long before the hearing.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – misuse of Section 38 thresholds

  • Equality Act 2010 – failure to accommodate disability (email-only communication)

  • ECHR Article 6 – right to a fair trial (mother excluded)

  • ECHR Article 8 – right to family life (no evidence of necessity or proportionality)

  • UNCRC – child removal without documented harm or sibling trauma analysis

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – reliance on unverified, uncorroborated personal data


V. SWANK’s Position

This was not safeguarding.
This was safeguarding theatre — written for a stage where the mother was denied a script, then accused of missing her cue.

SWANK rejects the premise that silence equates to danger, that asthma equates to incapacity, and that motherhood must perform distress to be believed.

This was a judgment against resistance — not evidence.
And it will remain here, archived and emboldened, until it is overturned.

Re EPO Without Warning: A Challenge to Seizure Sans Service, Safeguarding Sans Substance

Reference Number: SWANK/APPLICATION/0625-A01


⟡ “A seizure is not safeguarding when law is neither served nor seen.” ⟡
COURT SUBMISSION – EMERGENCY PROTECTION ORDER CHALLENGE

1-line summary: Formal court application to discharge Emergency Protection Order issued without legal service or safeguarding basis


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, four U.S. citizen children were removed from their home under an Emergency Protection Order that was never lawfully served. The applicant, a disabled mother, was given no prior warning, no legal documentation, and no time to respond. The children were taken by force while calm and playing — the applicant was in her bedroom unaware until they were already crying by the door, escorted by five police officers.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • No legal service or disclosure of the EPO prior to removal

  • No evidence of risk, harm, or imminent danger to justify emergency intervention

  • Existing legal proceedings (N1 civil claim, Judicial Review) already filed

  • No consular notification under the Vienna Convention

  • Known retaliation against a whistleblowing, disabled U.S. citizen parent

  • Complete lack of cross-border consultation regarding father and grandmother overseas


III. Why SWANK Logged It

This was not child protection. This was a seizure dressed in bureaucratic costume, designed to silence, disorient, and punish a mother for asserting procedural truth.
It’s not just a legal failure — it’s a jurisdictional fraud.
The removal occurred in open defiance of international treaty protections and documented disability accommodations.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.44 – Improper application of emergency powers

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6 & 8 – Right to family life and fair legal process

  • Equality Act 2010 – Discriminatory action against a disabled individual

  • Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, Article 37 – Failure to notify U.S. Embassy

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – Mishandling of jurisdictional records and redirections


V. SWANK’s Position

The Emergency Protection Order is void in spirit and application.
Its enforcement relied on coercion, deception, and institutional dominance — not law.
The applicant did not receive legal service.
The children were not in danger.
The timing aligned with peak exposure of safeguarding misconduct.

This was not lawful action. It was documented retaliation.
SWANK London Ltd. formally calls for the discharge of the EPO, recognition of disability discrimination, and legal consequences for misuse of safeguarding authority.
