“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.

When the Adjustment Is Medical and the Refusal Is Personal.



⟡ “Adjustment Requested. Retaliation Received.” ⟡

A complete evidentiary annex submitted in legal proceedings documenting Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust’s refusal to implement lawful disability adjustments for Polly Chromatic and her children.

Filed: 5 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/GSTT/ADA-01
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-05-05_SWANK_GSTT_DisabilityAdjustmentAnnex_FailureToAccommodate.pdf
Includes correspondence, legal declarations, policy references, and clinical context proving discriminatory denial of medical adjustments.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic formally requested reasonable adjustments from GSTT due to:

  • Severe eosinophilic asthma

  • Muscle dysphonia and verbal communication barriers

  • PTSD from prior medical trauma

  • Sole caregiving for four disabled U.S. citizen children

Despite repeated notices, the Trust refused to implement even basic accommodations — instead escalating institutional surveillance and retaliation.


II. What the Record Establishes

  • That GSTT was provided with medical records, legal rights citations, and clinical justification

  • That multiple written requests for adjustments were ignored or denied

  • That denial of care was tied to Polly Chromatic’s lawful resistance and complaint activity

  • That these failures led to further medical harm and increased safeguarding pressure


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because the NHS is not exempt from the Equality Act.
Because disability rights aren’t suggestions —
they’re statutory obligations.

Because retaliation disguised as “clinical policy” is still retaliation.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010: Failure to make reasonable adjustments

  • Human Rights Act: Violation of right to healthcare and bodily autonomy

  • GMC Code of Practice breaches by participating clinicians

  • Retaliatory denial of care in response to complaints and documentation

  • Disability discrimination under UK and international law


V. SWANK’s Position

This annex was submitted to show the law was clear.
The request was legal. The need was medical. The refusal was ideological.

Now, the public has the file the NHS tried to ignore.

⟡ The Doctor Laughed. The Social Worker Watched. And Then They Said It Didn’t Happen. ⟡
When disbelief isn’t clinical — it’s coordinated.

Filed: 21 November 2024
Reference: SWANK/WCC/EMAIL-02
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2024-11-21_SWANK_Email_Kirsty_DisabilityDisbeliefIncident_SMH.pdf
An email submitted to multiple agencies detailing real-time discrimination against a disabled parent by NHS and safeguarding actors — while witnesses remained silent.


I. What Happened

At St Mary’s Hospital, a disabled mother was subjected to verbal disbelief, medical bullying, and complete dismissal of her daughter's documented diagnoses.
Instead of clinical care, she received gaslighting.
Instead of social work support, she received silence.
Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman were included in the communication — not one intervened.
This is the mother’s own account, sent the same day. Timestamps do not lie.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That a medical incident of discrimination and disbelief occurred in a public institution

  • That multiple safeguarding officials were made aware of it in writing

  • That no corrective or safeguarding measures were taken in response

  • That disability rights were treated as optional, not legal


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because documentation is our defence against selective memory.
Because when witnesses ignore, they become participants.
And because no one should be mocked for struggling to breathe — especially not in front of professionals.


IV. Violations Identified

  • Disability Discrimination in a Medical Setting

  • Failure of Duty to Protect by Safeguarding Officials

  • Medical Negligence in Emergency Context

  • Retaliatory Disbelief of Documented Illness

  • Institutional Silence in the Face of Abuse


V. SWANK’s Position

This was not an isolated incident — it was a convergence.
Medical negligence, social worker indifference, and complete institutional alignment.
The mother spoke — in writing, immediately, and with witnesses.
They chose to ignore it.
We chose to publish it.

They Delayed. We Filed Again. And This Time It’s Public.



⟡ SWANK Resubmission Record ⟡

“The Complaint They Ignored. The Resubmission They Can’t.”
Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/GSTT/RESUBMIT/2025-06-02
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-06-02_SWANK_Resubmission_GSTT_DisabilityNegligence_NoResponse_EqualityAct.pdf


I. When Silence Is a Strategy, Filing Is a Weapon

This is not a new complaint.
It is the same one they ignored — returned, escalated, and now recorded.

On 2 June 2025, SWANK London Ltd. formally resubmitted a complaint to Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust concerning:

  • Disability discrimination

  • Clinical negligence

  • Safeguarding abuse

  • Procedural delay

  • Breach of the Equality Act 2010

They had 8 weeks to respond.
They chose not to.
So we filed it again — publicly, and with improved tone.


II. What They Tried to Avoid

The original complaint, submitted in March 2025, detailed:

  • Eosinophilic asthma neglected

  • Written-only communication breached

  • NHS staff retaliation disguised as “concern”

  • Psychological and physiological harm

  • No resolution. No final letter. No closure.

PHSO refused to investigate without a final reply.
GSTT simply never sent one.

So we gave them another opportunity — with a timestamp.

They used silence as defence.
We used resubmission as evidence.


III. Why This Is Now a Public Filing

Because delay is not neutral.
Because the Equality Act does not allow NHS bodies to ignore disabled patients.
Because your “final response” cannot be: no response.

This document now functions as:

  • trigger for PHSO escalation

  • formal record of institutional avoidance

  • statement of intent from SWANK: we don’t go away — we resubmit louder


IV. SWANK’s Position

They didn’t reject the complaint.
They erased it.
And in doing so, proved the very allegation at its core: that disability complaint invites punishment — or disappearance.

We do not wait politely.
We file permanently.
This document is now part of the public archive.

Let the record show:

They were told once.
They were told again.
And now the silence speaks louder than anything they could write.

The Hospital Escalated. So Did We.



⟡ SWANK Parliamentary Complaint ⟡

“They Called It Care. We Filed It as Harm.”
Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/PHSO/GSTT/2025-06-02
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-06-02_SWANK_PHSOComplaint_GSTT_DisabilityNegligence_SafeguardingAbuse.pdf


I. When Medical Neglect Wears a Badge of Authority

On 2 June 2025, SWANK London Ltd. filed a formal complaint with the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO) regarding Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTT).

The subject:

  • Disability discrimination

  • Medical negligence

  • Retaliatory safeguarding abuse

  • Administrative evasion masked as "procedure"

The outcome?
Still pending.
The harm? Documented.
The tone? Unimpressed.


II. What They Did — and Refused to Undo

The complaint details include:

  • Emergency admissions ignored

  • Disabling symptoms (eosinophilic asthma, dysphonia) mishandled

  • Safeguarding used in retaliation for medical complaints

  • Failure to action disability adjustments despite formal record

  • No reply from GSTT even after SWANK filed direct notice

They didn’t just fail to care.
They escalated to punishment when asked to.


III. Why This Went to the PHSO

Because the internal NHS process had exhausted itself into silence.
Because written communication requests were breached.
Because safeguarding was used not to assess, but to threaten.
And because hospitals do not get to rebrand endangerment as “support.”

SWANK invoked its documentary jurisdiction and submitted the complaint to the Parliamentary Ombudsman — not to request help, but to ensure Parliamentary silence becomes a matter of public record.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not consider medical retaliation “miscommunication.”
We do not treat safeguarding abuse as a health matter.
We do not escalate in fear. We escalate for the file.

This submission is now permanent, timestamped, and public.
Should Parliament fail to act, that failure will be cited as part of the pattern.

They ignored symptoms.
They threatened safeguarding.
And now, they’ve been filed.

They Used Safeguarding to Punish a Complaint. We Sent It to Television. — Channel 4 Has the File Now



⟡ Dispatches Tipped Off. State Retaliation Logged. TV Was Notified. ⟡

“A disabled mother filed lawful complaints. The state responded with safeguarding powers. Now Channel 4 knows.”

Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/MEDIA/DISPATCHES-01
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-06-02_SWANK_Dispatches_TipOff_DisabledFamily_SafeguardingRetaliation.pdf
A formal tip submitted to Channel 4’s Dispatches, placing legal, medical, and regulatory evidence into the hands of national investigative journalism. Describes the coordinated abuse of safeguarding frameworks against a disabled family in lawful proceedings. The press has been briefed. The archive has logged it.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., submitted a documentary tip to Channel 4’s Dispatches team, outlining:

  • A pattern of multi-agency misconduct

  • The use of fabricated safeguarding concerns following civil complaints

  • Retaliation by police, NHS trusts, and social workers

  • A £23 million claim for legal damages, already filed

  • A press release enclosing statutory references and legal breaches

This tip is not an emotional disclosure — it is a forensic, jurisdictional act of witness.


II. What the Tip Establishes

  • That a major UK broadcaster has been placed on formal notice

  • That the evidence submitted includes medical, legal, and procedural documentation

  • That this case is not isolated — it mirrors national patterns of disability retaliation masked as care

  • That Channel 4 now holds recorded knowledge of the harm — and can no longer claim neutrality through ignorance


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because safeguarding is being used to retaliate.
Because the courts are slow, the regulators are silent, and the archive can’t wait.

Because once the story is told,
They’ll say no one knew.
They’ll say the press weren’t contacted.
They’ll say the public never saw.

So SWANK shows them:
The press were told.
The documents were sent.
And now the file lives online.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that TV must wait until after a tragedy.
We do not accept that evidence needs virality to deserve coverage.
We do not accept that a mother must choose between legal pursuit and her child’s protection.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the state targets us,
We target the narrative.
If the system hides it,
We submit it.
And if the story never airs,
We air it here — with a file name, a date stamp, and a jurisdictional receipt.

They Retaliated for Asking for Access. — A Case Built for Public Record, Now Delivered to the Press



⟡ Media Briefing Filed: Multi-Agency Abuse, Medical Harm, Legal Proof ⟡

“I am a disabled mother who has been repeatedly targeted for retaliation after requesting lawful disability adjustments and submitting formal legal complaints.”

Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/MEDIA/BRIEFING-01
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-06-02_SWANK_MediaBriefing_MultiAgencyAbuse_DisabledFamilyEvidence.pdf
A formal media briefing sent to investigative journalist Maeve McClenaghan. Encloses legal and medical evidence of multi-agency retaliation, fabricated safeguarding, and the weaponisation of care systems against a disabled family.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., issued a formal press briefing to journalist Maeve McClenaghan at The Bureau of Investigative Journalism.

The briefing includes:

  • A synopsis of multi-agency harm involving social workers, police, and NHS Trusts

  • Summary of civil, regulatory, and criminal filings already on record

  • Disclosure of written-only medical adjustments repeatedly violated

  • Evidence of safeguarding abuse, negligence, and institutional collusion

  • Direct reference to Equality Act breaches and formal regulatory escalation

This is not an informal tip-off.
It is a procedural act of public witness.


II. What the Briefing Establishes

  • That a public-interest reporter has been formally notified

  • That the case involves disabled children, regulatory evasion, and state-based retaliation

  • That enclosed materials meet the threshold for investigation, not summary dismissal

  • That silence in response will also become part of the record


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when legal complaints vanish into mailboxes,
And medical accommodations are treated as invitations for harm,
And safeguarding is weaponised by those meant to protect —

The press must be notified.
Not because we hope — but because we file.
If power won’t acknowledge the truth,
SWANK sends it to someone who will.

And if no one listens,
We publish the silence with the same level of proof.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that media interest must be begged.
We do not accept that evidence must scream to be seen.
We do not accept institutional collusion as untouchable.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the regulators fail,
We brief the press.
If the press ignores,
We archive the notice.
And if no one acts —
We remain the record.

The Complaint Is Filed. The Press Has Been Told. — £23 Million, Multiple Defendants, and a System That Called It Safeguarding



⟡ Public Notice Filed: £23M Complaint Over Criminal Safeguarding Abuse ⟡

“This isn’t safeguarding. It’s systemic misconduct, now quantified in damages and submitted in law.”

Filed: 2 June 2025

A formal press release sent to journalist Maeve McClenaghan summarising a £23 million legal complaint over coordinated safeguarding abuse, collusion, and systemic retaliation against a disabled family. Sent under lawful access terms. Received, now archived.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., issued a formal press release to The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, summarising a multi-claim, multi-defendant action rooted in:

  • Criminal safeguarding misuse

  • Disability-based retaliation

  • Obstructed access to medical care

  • Police-social work collusion

  • Coordinated regulatory delay

The press release:

  • Names multiple institutional actors under active complaint

  • Cites the Equality Act 2010Fraud Act 2006Human Rights Act 1998, and Children Act 1989

  • Notes ongoing referrals to Social Work EnglandMetropolitan Police DPS, and the IOPC

  • Asserts a total claim value of £23 million, filed under sworn evidence

  • Reiterates a written-only communication policy as legally mandated and repeatedly violated


II. What the Press Release Establishes

  • That the legal claim exists, is filed, and is quantifiable

  • That the journalist has been directly and lawfully placed on notice

  • That there is public evidence of pattern-based institutional harm

  • That no future ignorance of the case can be claimed in good faith by media or regulators


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because journalism is part of the system.
Because silence from the press protects the same institutions that weaponised safeguarding.
Because this isn’t outreach — it’s recordkeeping, timed to the moment legal action becomes public.

This release isn’t a pitch.
It’s an invitation to truth — and a declaration of jurisdictional standing.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that press interest should follow only after harm has ended.
We do not accept media neglect when systems collapse in slow motion.
We do not accept that a family must suffer in silence while their abusers wear lanyards.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the press will not investigate,
We log that too.
If justice is ignored,
We publish the price.
And if £23 million is not enough to merit coverage,
We will make it archival — and impossible to delete.

Verbal Disregard, Medical Denial, and the Echo Chamber of No Reply



πŸ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 24 November 2024
“Refusal Is Not a Misunderstanding. It’s a Strategy.”

Filed Under: Adjustment Refusal · A&E Negligence · Hospital Lies · Communication Shutdown · Asthma Mismanagement · SWANK London Ltd

Dear Kirsty & Colleagues in Selective Incompetence,

I wrote:

“Your hospitals refuse to treat us when we go to A&E due to ignorance about asthma.”

And I meant it.
They don’t fail to treat — they punish us for presenting.
Their protocol is disbelief. Their attitude is sanctioned negligence.

“You all refuse to provide adjustments when we are compromised verbally.”

This is not a misunderstanding.
It is a coordinated refusal. A tactic. A weapon.
What you call policy, we experience as entrapment.

“I can’t explain my perspective.”
“No one will give me the hospital’s perspective, and I’ve been asking for this for an entire year.”

A year of silence.
A year of being ghosted in writing while suffocated in person.
And what do I get in return?

Lies from St Thomas’.
Lies smoother than breath. Lies with laminated name tags.
Lies told in fonts of faux concern.

This isn’t miscommunication.
It is institutional contempt — cleverly disguised as clinical decorum.

You do not get to call it support when it’s silent, slow, and strategically cruel.

πŸ“ Declined. Documented. Disbelieved.

Emergency Room, Party Balloons, and Nine Police Outside My Hotel Door

 πŸ“Ž SWANK Dispatch: The Birthday That Triggered the State

πŸ—“️ 4 January 2024

Filed Under: police escalation, ER racial harassment, NHS negligence, safeguarding misuse, COVID mistreatment, maternal disability, social work retaliation, St Thomas misconduct, birthday sabotage


On 2 January 2024, Polly Chromatic took her daughter Heir to St Thomas’ Hospital because she was experiencing acute respiratory distress, weight loss, dizziness, and an inability to sit upright.

The ER staff subjected her to:
– dismissive comments about her diagnosis
– delayed care
– aggressive questioning about her children while she was visibly ill
– removal from care because her daughter was present
– and the release of false accusations of racism that triggered police involvement

By 4amnine officers had surrounded her hotel room at the Holiday Inn W8, disrupting her family on the eve of her son Prerogative’s birthday.

And yet:
– Polly had documented her symptoms
– Had already planned a trip to hospital
– Had video evidence of her conduct
– And was diagnosed with COVID and asthma exacerbation at Chelsea & Westminster the next day


🧾 SWANK Commentary

When the cost of asking for medical help is:

— racial slander
— false safeguarding
— nine police officers
— trauma to four children
— and the cancellation of a birthday

You are not being helped.
You are being punished
for being visibly unwell
and maternally competent
at the same time.



The Risk Was Medical. The Refusal Was Historical.



⟡ We Stayed Home. Because the Last Time, the Hospital Refused to Help. ⟡
“She chose a nebuliser over an emergency room. I didn’t blame her.”

Filed: 21 November 2024
Reference: SWANK/WCC-NHS/EMAILS-10
πŸ“Ž Download PDF – 2024-11-21_SWANK_EmailUpdate_WCC-NHS_HonorHomeTreatment_PriorHospitalHarm.pdf
Medical update submitted to Westminster and NHS documenting home treatment for Honor’s respiratory distress following previous hospital-based trauma and institutional refusal to act.


I. What Happened

On the morning of 21 November 2024, the parent emailed both Westminster Children’s Services and GP Dr Philip Reid to confirm:

  • Her daughter Honor was undergoing albuterol nebuliser treatments at home

  • Oxygen levels remained low but within watchable range

  • The parent was monitoring the situation and would escalate to hospital if needed

  • Honor refused to go to A&E — citing trauma from previous visits where she and her mother were dismissed despite medical crisis

The message reiterated that this is exactly what had happened to the parent previously:
six months of untreated respiratory failure while being accused of non-compliance.

So this time, the family stayed home.
And this time, the system still stayed silent.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That the child’s oxygen levels were being actively managed with medical oversight

  • That the family had previously experienced institutional dismissal at hospital and feared repeat trauma

  • That the NHS was informed, as was the safeguarding authority

  • That no response, support, or safeguarding review followed

  • That refusal to seek care was a rational response to institutional harm, not neglect


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when a child refuses to go to the hospital because she remembers how it felt to be disbelieved,
you don’t have a clinical problem —
you have an institutional injury.

Because when you choose to treat at home not out of defiance but out of trauma,
you are not refusing care —
you are refusing harm.

And when you warn them in writing and they say nothing,
they’re not documenting risk.
They’re demonstrating it.


IV. Violations

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Articles 3 and 8
    Exposure to degrading treatment and interference with bodily autonomy and family protection

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 20
    Failure to respect disability-based limits on hospital care and verbal communication

  • Children Act 1989 / 2004
    Inaction following explicit notification of a child in medical distress

  • NHS Safeguarding and Risk Protocols
    Failure to respond to declared medical harm avoidance and home-based mitigation


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a wellness update.
It was an institutional indictment.

We didn’t stay home because it was safe.
We stayed home because they made the alternative worse.

So we wrote it down.
And now — we filed it.

They Had 84 Days to Respond. They Chose Not To. — When Escalation Becomes Evidence



⟡ Complaint Escalation: When Silence Becomes Policy ⟡

“Despite the time elapsed, I have received no final response from the Trust.”

A formal escalation to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman. The subject: Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Trust’s refusal to respond to a complaint about medical neglect, discrimination, and a retaliatory safeguarding referral.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic escalated an unresolved formal complaint to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO).

The original complaint — sent to Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust on 10 March 2025 — addressed:

  • Being denied care during respiratory emergencies

  • Refusal to provide written communication despite a published medical exemption

  • A retaliatory safeguarding referral used against a disabled parent

Nearly three months passed.
There was no resolution.
No apology.
No action.

And so it was escalated — formally, thoroughly, and with full archival precision.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Clinical negligence escalated through refusal to treat life-threatening symptoms

  • Disability discrimination via breach of written-only communication policy

  • Safeguarding used as institutional punishment, not protection

  • Unlawful delay: a total absence of reply from the Trust after formal submission

  • Now under Ombudsman jurisdiction: triggering public accountability review


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because silence is a decision.
Because failure to reply is a form of harm.
And because escalation — when written correctly — becomes evidence of indifference.

This isn't a follow-up. It's a jurisdictional migration.

When NHS Trusts ignore disabled patients after filing discrimination claims, SWANK does not assume forgetfulness.
We assume tactics.
And we document them.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that “no response” is a legitimate clinical position.
We do not accept that safeguarding threats erase the need to answer questions.
We do not accept that a disability complaint should be met with a form letter — or worse, nothing at all.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the Trust can’t be bothered to respond,
We’ll respond for them.
In ink.
Online.
And under full evidentiary seal.

Parliament Was Told. Retaliation Was Described. Silence Will Be Measured. — The State Has Been Notified



⟡ Parliament Was Notified. Oversight Formally Requested. ⟡

“This is no longer a local safeguarding error. This is the systemic abuse of legal power — by the state, against a disabled family.”

Filed: 29 May 2025

A formal request for parliamentary oversight submitted to MP Munira Wilson. The document outlines a coordinated pattern of safeguarding misuse by multiple public bodies, supported by legal filings and medical evidence. Parliament was placed on record.


I. What Happened

On 29 May 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., submitted a formal request for parliamentary review to Munira Wilson MP, as part of ongoing public interest exposure of safeguarding abuse against a disabled family.

The letter outlines:

  • Criminal misuse of safeguarding powers

  • Evidence of collusion between social workers, police, and NHS Trusts

  • Repeated breach of written-only medical adjustments

  • Ongoing retaliation in response to civil and regulatory complaints

  • Enclosed legal claims including a £23M damages action and Judicial Review

  • Active referrals to IOPC, SWE, and DPS

This was not a grievance letter. It was a jurisdictional escalation, sent with evidence, under constitutional right.


II. What the Filing Establishes

  • That Parliament has now been notified of criminal safeguarding abuse by public servants

  • That the abuse is documented, repeated, and cross-institutional

  • That the request is grounded in civil, medical, and statutory authority

  • That future claims of “unawareness” by government actors are now foreclosed


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when safeguarding becomes surveillance,
When medical need becomes threat,
And when silence becomes the state’s primary language —
The record must be taken from them.

Parliament has been told.
They may ignore it.
But they will not be able to deny its filing.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept safeguarding as soft power.
We do not accept cross-agency collusion as professional error.
We do not accept a Parliament that only acts after harm becomes permanent.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the government permits it,
We document it.
If the MPs fail to intervene,
We file that too.
And if the public never hears —
We remain the record of what they chose not to say.
