“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.

Formal Complaint Sent to Housing Ombudsman Alleging Landlord and Council Negligence Leading to Unsafe Living Conditions and Financial Harm

Filed: 10 March 2025
Reference: SWANK/HO/EMAIL-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-03-10_SWANK_Email_HousingOmbudsman_Submission_HousingNegligenceComplaint.pdf
Summary: SWANK confirms submission of a formal complaint to the Housing Ombudsman regarding statutory neglect by both landlord and local authority in maintaining safe, habitable housing conditions.

I. What Happened

On 10 March 2025, a formal complaint was submitted by Polly Chromatic to the Housing Ombudsman. The subject line made clear:

– Both the landlord and RBKC are accused of negligence
– The situation resulted in unsafe living conditions
– There were financial losses connected to the disrepair and oversight failures

While the full complaint body was in the attachment, this email serves as the submission confirmation and jurisdictional trigger for Ombudsman involvement.

II. What the Record Establishes

• You formally activated Ombudsman oversight on 10 March 2025
• The complaint names both private and public bodies as responsible
• This email serves as proof of escalation beyond local resolution
• It can be paired with RBKC’s refusal letters and court filings to show full exhaustion of internal routes

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because escalation is part of exhaustion — and exhaustion is part of evidence.
Because this email is the moment the archive moved outside the borough.
Because the mould wasn’t just medical — it was municipal.

SWANK documents every threshold crossed in pursuit of lawful shelter.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that unsafe housing can be blamed on a landlord while the Council fails to inspect.
We do not accept that financial harm from statutory neglect is incidental.
We do not accept that silence at local level should block structural oversight.

This wasn’t just an email. It was jurisdictional invocation.
And SWANK will record every time oversight was demanded.

Retaliation Ignored. Disability Denied. Mould Uninvestigated. So We Escalated.

SWANK Formally Refers Unresolved Housing Complaint to the LGSCO After RBKC Refuses Action on Hazard, Retaliation, and Discrimination

Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/RBKC/LGSCO-REF-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-02_SWANK_Email_LGSCO_HousingReferral_RBKCComplaint12060761.pdf
Summary: SWANK London Ltd. refers RBKC Housing Complaint 12060761 to the Ombudsman, citing unsafe housing, procedural retaliation, and failure to accommodate disability needs.

I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic (Noelle Bonnee Annee Simlett) submitted a formal referral to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman. The complaint:

– Follows RBKC’s Stage 2 closure on 27 May 2025
– Concerns 37 Elgin Crescent, Flat E
– Details persistent mould, damp, sewer gas exposure, and medical risk
– Alleges disability discrimination, failure to act on Environmental Health findings, and procedural retaliation
– Names Hardeep Kundi as a responsible officer

The referral requests a full review and invites LGSCO to request any supporting documentation needed.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

• RBKC concluded a Stage 2 investigation without addressing urgent health and safety issues
• Council failed to act on clear evidence of housing disrepair and medical endangerment
• Disabled residents, including children, were left exposed to hazardous living conditions
• Procedural retaliation followed formal complaints — implicating named officers
• Local process failed — requiring national scrutiny via the Ombudsman

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is where local governance ends — and external oversight begins.
Because when the state fails to fix the mould, we escalate the archive.
Because retaliation after complaint is not just unethical — it’s unlawful.

SWANK documents the moment when advocacy becomes escalation — and silence meets structure.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that medically hazardous conditions can be administratively “closed.”
We do not accept that retaliation is permissible just because it’s procedurally denied.
We do not accept that the Ombudsman is a formality — they are a mirror.

This wasn’t just a referral. This was a structural handover.
And SWANK will log what RBKC refused to record.
