Investigative brief submitted to Social Work England documenting systemic misconduct, retaliatory safeguarding abuse, and discriminatory practice by multiple registered social workers across Westminster and RBKC.
I. What Happened
On 28 May 2025 at 19:33, Polly Chromatic (writing under legal name for submission compliance) sent a formal investigative brief titled “The Ministry of Moisture” to Social Work England at enquiries@socialworkengland.org.uk.
The brief:
Documented retaliatory safeguarding escalation following formal complaints
Described a pattern of disability discrimination, record falsification, and intimidation
Highlighted failure to uphold legal duties, including failure to make reasonable adjustments
Named structural themes of suppression, retaliation, and misuse of statutory powers
It contextualised previously submitted Fitness to Practise referrals within a broader cultural pattern of institutional misconduct.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
Safeguarding measures were used not to protect, but to punish
Multiple social workers across boroughs collaborated or failed to intervene
The system repeatedly ignored disability rights and fabricated procedural justification
Evidence was tampered with or suppressed after complaints were made
The institutional conduct resembles strategic containment, not child welfare
This wasn’t social work. It was surveillance culture with a care label.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because misconduct doesn’t end with one practitioner — it grows in damp institutions.
Because retaliation disguised as welfare is the most insidious state tool.
Because when safeguarding becomes a tactic, it’s no longer protective — it’s political.
Because this document names a culture, not just a case.
Because silence around systemic misconduct is what makes it structural.
IV. Violations
The Care Act 2014, Section 1 – Failure to promote individual well-being
Children Act 1989 – Weaponised safeguarding outside lawful thresholds
Equality Act 2010, Section 20 & 27 – Disability discrimination and victimisation
Social Work England Professional Standards 1.1, 1.3, 6.1 – Breaches of honesty, integrity, and responsibility
Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6 & 8 – Denial of fair treatment and respect for family life
V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t child protection. It was systemic control via soft-authority weaponry.
This wasn’t rogue practice. It was compliance through fear, disguised as protocol.
This wasn’t moisture. It was a flood of retaliatory escalation logged by the very archive they tried to suppress.
SWANK hereby logs this brief as a statement of collective indictment.
The mold wasn’t the hazard — the culture was.
The leak wasn’t physical — it was procedural.
And the investigation has already begun — on our terms, and in our format.
