⟡ ADDENDUM: NHS RESOLUTION ACKNOWLEDGMENT ⟡

Summary: NHS Resolution has formally assumed liability management for the civil claim brought by Polly Chromatic against Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, confirming the procedural validity and legal weight of the underlying allegations of negligence, discrimination, and retaliatory misuse of safeguarding.

I. What Happened

On 16 July 2025, the Legal Services Department of Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust issued a written confirmation that Polly Chromatic’s £23 million civil claim had been reported to their legal insurer, NHS Resolution.
The correspondence from Sandra West, Legal Claims Manager, explicitly named Olivia Pearce as the appointed handler under reference M25CT541/011 — transferring the matter from internal review to indemnified litigation management.

This procedural shift signifies institutional recognition that the allegations meet indemnifiable criteria for medical negligence and disability discrimination.

II. What the Document Establishes

• That the N1 claim filed by the Applicant has moved beyond complaint status and into formal indemnity territory.
• That Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust has conceded the existence of actionable risk under NHS Resolution governance.
• That the same incidents underlying this civil claim — particularly the false intoxication allegation and the oxygen deprivation incident of 2 November 2023 — form the factual backbone of the current family court proceedings.
• That Westminster’s safeguarding narrative now collapses under the weight of the NHS’s own acknowledgment of liability potential.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

• To preserve a timestamp of institutional concession — the precise moment the narrative shifted from denial to defence.
• To mark the emergence of cross-jurisdictional accountability: civil, family, and administrative law now converging upon the same facts.
• To demonstrate that Westminster’s entire safeguarding case was constructed upon a medically disproven allegationlater acknowledged as procedural misconduct by its source institution.
• Because bureaucracies only believe truth when forced to insure it.

IV. Legal Context

Domestic Law:
• Children Act 1989 – breach of parental and child welfare duties.
• Equality Act 2010, ss.13 & 149 – discrimination and public-sector equality duty breach.
• Tort Law: Negligence – misdiagnosis and harm through failure of duty of care.

Human Rights Law:
• ECHR Articles 3, 6, 8, and 13 – protection from degrading treatment, fair process, respect for family life, and right to remedy.

Regulatory Bodies:
• NHS Resolution (UK indemnity authority) now seized of the claim.
• ICO, EHRC, and CQC pending oversight notification.

Academic Authorities:
• Bromley Family Law – recognises procedural misuse of safeguarding as abuse of authority.
• Amos Human Rights Law – defines retaliatory medical escalation as systemic rights violation.

V. Procedural Consequence

This acknowledgment effectively undermines the legal foundation of the Emergency Protection Order (EPO) dated 23 June 2025.
If the initiating medical narrative (false intoxication) has now been recognised as indemnifiable negligence, then all derivative safeguarding actions lack lawful origin.

The NHS Resolution confirmation thus becomes both civil evidence and family court exoneration material.

VI. SWANK’s Position

“They confirmed it in writing — not as apology,
but as actuarial panic.”

SWANK London Ltd. interprets this acknowledgment as a material concession of credibility collapse within Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust.
It transforms denial into documentation, and documentation into judicial proof.
The record stands: retaliation began with misdiagnosis, and ended in acknowledgment.

In re: Chromatic (Assessments), On the Fiction of Cooperative Consent

🪞COOPERATION IS NOT CONSENT

In which the mother participates without surrender, and the State’s baseless referrals are politely declined through procedural contempt.

Filed: 4 August 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-AUP-2025-08

PDF Filename: 2025-08-04_SWANK_Addendum_AssessmentsUnderProtest.pdf

Summary: Mother agrees to assessments under protest, affirming that participation does not ratify the illegality, falsehoods, or retaliatory basis of the safeguarding regime.

I. What Happened

After the unlawful issuance of an Emergency Protection Order on 23 June 2025 — initiated on false medical grounds now discredited by NHS Resolution — the Local Authority has proposed psychiatric, parenting, and other assessments.

Polly Chromatic has responded with poised precision:

Yes, I will participate.
No, I do not accept your premise.

This is not acquiescence. This is calibrated objection wrapped in procedural grace.

II. What This Filing Establishes

The Mother remains willing to participate in assessments for the welfare of her children
That cooperation is issued strictly under protest and without prejudice to her legal position
The assessments are tainted at origin, being derived from:
- A false intoxication allegation (St Thomas’ Hospital, disproven)
- Procedural retaliation
- Discriminatory assumptions based on disability, nationality, and lawful dissent

SWANK affirms that no State process may launder its own misconduct through the veneer of maternal politeness.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when the State constructs an assessment based on falsified scaffolding, it deserves not compliance but annotated critique.

Because politeness is not submission, and cooperation is not complicity.

Because disabled mothers are not waiting for diagnoses — they’re waiting for apologies.

And because, as Bromley’s Family Law reminds us:

“Where safeguarding mechanisms are invoked without lawful consent or substantiated risk, assessments serve no protective function. They perform coercion by process.” (p. 640)

IV. Violations and Legal Framework

Article 6 ECHR – Right to a fair and lawful process
Article 8 ECHR – Right to family life and bodily autonomy
Children Act 1989 – Paramountcy of welfare
Equality Act 2010 – Discrimination based on disability and nationality
Common law proportionality – State action must be justified, not speculative

V. SWANK’s Position

To assess a parent based on a lie is not protection. It is theatre.
To offer a test where no threshold has been met is not safeguarding. It is humiliation.
And to interpret willingness as concession is not law. It is institutional gaslighting.

We do not refuse the process.
We refuse its fictional authority.

In the Matter of Medical Collapse and Legal Continuity – Or – The Procedural Insistence on That Which Has Already Fallen Apart

Moise and the March of the Misguided Assessments (A Sequel to Nothing, Filed on False Premise)

Filed Date: 20 July 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-RM-LOI0718
PDF Filename: 2025-07-20_SWANK_Addendum_RositaMoise_LOIAssumption.pdf
1-Line Summary: Rosita Moise coordinates assessments ordered under disproven grounds, ignoring NHS Resolution's acknowledgment of medical error.

I. What Happened

On 18 July 2025, Rosita Moise — Senior Solicitor for Bi-borough Legal Services — circulated draft Letters of Instruction (LOIs) for psychiatric, parenting, and paediatric assessments. She requested that I personally obtain and forward my GP records to Dr. McClintock, despite:

No direct contact from the assessor
No clarity on consent parameters
No procedural pause despite the original safeguarding basis now having been discredited by NHS Resolution

While the assessments were indeed initially ordered by the Court, they were ordered on the basis of a medical safeguarding referral that has since been formally undermined. Specifically, the referral issued by St Thomas’ Hospital, which triggered the Emergency Protection Order, has now been acknowledged as medically incorrect and procedurally harmful.

To proceed with these assessments without judicial reconsideration is not neutral compliance — it is administrative negligence cloaked in progress language.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

This email reveals the Local Authority’s:

Refusal to pause or re-evaluate its plan in light of corrected medical evidence
Dismissal of due process as a technicality to be worked around, not a safeguard to be respected
Expectation that the parent become the facilitator of her own unjustified examination

Rosita does not ask whether the grounds still justify the assessments — she assumes their legitimacy remains intact, as if the Court’s order exists in a vacuum unbothered by truth.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is the exact juncture at which the law should adapt to evidence — and yet instead, the process continues as though the NHS Resolution letter never happened.

Because Rosita Moise is not only ignoring the parent’s objection — she is ignoring the system’s own correction. The truth changed, but her email didn’t.

And because no parent should be instructed to fetch their own medical history in service of disproven allegations, under the pretence that this is “what the Judge wanted.”

IV. Violations

Article 6 ECHR – Proceeding on invalidated grounds
Article 8 ECHR – Disproportionate intrusion following acknowledged error
Equality Act 2010 – Disregard of written-only accommodation and procedural safety
Data Protection Act 2018 – Coercive implication of medical disclosure absent fresh consent
Public Law Principles – Failure to reassess course of action in light of exonerating evidence

V. SWANK’s Position

Yes, the Court ordered assessments. But the factual grounds have since collapsed, and that collapse has been acknowledged by the medical institution that initiated them.

To proceed mechanically without judicial recalibration — and to request that I, the subject of those false allegations, supply the fuel for a fire already ruled accidental — is not legal efficiency. It is post-truth case management.

SWANK London Ltd. rejects the notion that a procedural train must run simply because the track was once laid — especially when the station was built on error.

This is not progress. This is administrative refusal to stop a runaway process out of professional pride.

The entry is now archived. The assessor may wait.

Chromatic v. Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust: The Procedural Surrender to Liability Consciousness

⟡ SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue

Filed Date: 17 July 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-NHSRES-ACKNOWLEDGMENT
PDF Filename: 2025-07-17_SWANK_LiabilityTransfer_NHSResolutionAcknowledged.pdf
1-Line Summary: Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Trust has formally escalated Polly’s £88M civil claim to NHS Resolution, confirming official legal risk recognition.

I. What Happened

On 16 July 2025, Sandra West — legal officer for Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust — issued a formal reply to Polly Chromatic’s multi-defendant N1 civil claim, stating that the case has been handed to the Trust’s legal insurer: NHS Resolution.

This procedural transfer was not simply clerical.

It marked the moment the Trust formally acknowledged:

the validity and seriousness of Polly’s legal action,
the potential institutional liability it exposes,
and the scale of public interest risk it now carries.

The case is now assigned to Olivia Pearce (NHS Resolution), with case reference M25CT541/011.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

The civil claim filed by Polly Chromatic outlines:

Medical negligence (oxygen deprivation, dysphonia, safeguarding harm)
Retaliatory behaviour by social care bodies, solicitors, and medical staff
Multi-institutional collusion
Psychological, physical, and procedural harm spanning years

The Trust’s decision to forward this to NHS Resolution is a legal gesture of liability awareness, not just a forwarding of mail.

It shows the Trust knows it is not in a position to deny, deflect, or casually discard the evidence.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

This event establishes:

A formal turning point in civil procedure
That the weight of the claim is being taken seriously
That Polly, as a litigant in person, has succeeded where full legal teams often falter

SWANK London Ltd. is logging this moment to document the pattern of:

Legal systems folding once proper documentation is presented
Institutions shielding themselves with insurers when truth becomes too sharp

IV. Violations

The original claim names 23 defendants, including:

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust
Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services
The Metropolitan Police
CPS
Kirsty Hornal, Sam Brown, Alan Mullem, Dr. Reid, and others in their personal and/or professional capacities

Primary violations alleged:

Disability discrimination
Medical negligence
Safeguarding misuse
Institutional retaliation
Suppression of parental rights

This NHS acknowledgment implicitly accepts the seriousness of these allegations.

V. SWANK’s Position

When a Trust forwards a claim to NHS Resolution, it ceases to posture as innocent.
It becomes, procedurally, a defending party. That distinction matters.

It signals that the harm alleged is:

Legally arguable
Medically traceable
Procedurally potent

SWANK London Ltd. asserts that the NHS Trust’s action — taken on record — confirms that Polly Chromatic’s legal voice carries enough weight to activate institutional insurance mechanisms.

The velvet letterhead has been received. The clock is ticking.

Chromatic v Capsticks: On the Polished Non-Reply Draped in CSR Metrics

⟡ The Delay Draped in Corporate Sincerity ⟡
“We haven’t responded to your harm — but we’d love to tell you about our charity work.”

Capsticks LLP confirms delayed response to Letter of Claim re: Chelsea & Westminster Hospital, cloaked in boilerplate virtue and legal niceties.

⟡ Chromatic v Capsticks: On the Polished Non-Reply Draped in CSR Metrics ⟡
Chelsea & Westminster NHS, Capsticks LLP, NHS Resolution, clinical negligence claim, expert delay, corporate platitude, litigation delay dressing

I. What Happened
On 9 June 2025, Capsticks LLP (paralegal Alice Crisell) emailed Polly Chromatic regarding the ongoing clinical negligence claim against Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. The firm confirmed it had been “instructed on a limited basis” by NHS Resolution and that its response — previously promised for 17 June — would be delayed to 15 July 2025.

This was explained in the language of procedural courtesy. The email closes with unsolicited referrals to third-party charities and a list of Capsticks’ corporate social responsibility (CSR) affiliations, none of which bear relevance to the subject at hand.

II. What the Letter Establishes

⟡ Delay framed as diligence — “We had hoped” to reply, but “expert evidence” continues to roam
⟡ Minimalist legalism paired with maximalist PR padding
⟡ Emotional outsourcing — refers claimant to Action Against Medical Accidents and Citizens Advice
⟡ Subtle refusal to fully engage — Capsticks is “limited” in instruction, NHS Resolution remains in control
⟡ Misuse of CSR — inserting unrelated virtue metrics into legal delay notifications

This was not an update. It was reputational embroidery.

III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because corporate delay should not arrive with a philanthropic footnote. Because every deferral cloaked in community spirit is still a denial of timely justice. Because legal communications deserve structural rigour, not LinkedIn-scented padding.

Capsticks' response is not archived because it failed to reply.
It is archived because it succeeded — in refining delay into prose.

IV. Legal and Structural Implications

Pre-Action Protocol (Clinical Negligence) – delay must be justified with real cause, not padded affect
HRA 1998, Article 6 – right to a timely, fair process
Public law ethics – response to harm must prioritise claimant’s need, not institutional optics
Displacement tactic – deflecting responsibility onto non-legal charities mid-claim

V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t compassion. It was choreography.
This wasn’t transparency. It was typography.
SWANK does not accept CSR metrics as a substitute for timeliness.
We will not be redirected to third-party helplines while liability is under legal negotiation.
We do not care how many bake sales your firm holds if the evidence remains unaddressed.
