“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 St Thomas’ Hospital: On the Inversion of Victimhood and the Weaponisation of Misdiagnosis After Verbal Assault

Summary: Police report submitted by Polly Chromatic after being verbally abused while gasping for air at St Thomas’ A&E. CCTV confirms she was the victim.


I. What Happened

On the night of 2 January 2024, Polly Chromatic presented to St Thomas’ Hospital in a state of acute respiratory distress. She was dizzy from oxygen deprivation and unable to stand upright. During triage, she accidentally stepped on someone’s foot while attempting to sit.

An unrelated woman — a stranger seated in the back row — launched into loud, targeted verbal abuse. Polly, unable to hear the nurse through the attack, asked the woman to be quiet. Instead, the verbal assault escalated.

Polly filed a police report the very next day:
Verbal abuse, racially motivated targeting, disability-related vulnerability.
She specifically identified that the hospital had CCTV footage confirming the events — including her medical distress, her daughter’s presence, and the abusive behavior of the other woman.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Clear victimisation of a disabled mother in medical crisis

  • Targeted verbal assault in a hospital setting with no immediate intervention

  • Racial and disability-based aggression confirmed via self-report and visible footage

  • Submission of a police report that was subsequently ignored — while Polly was instead referred for psychiatric review

  • Institutional erasure of a documented assault in favour of redirecting blame onto the patient herself


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this incident triggered a catastrophic misdiagnosis —
St Thomas’ staff later alleged Polly had attacked someone, weaponising the racist and inaccurate inversion of events to launch a safeguarding escalation that led, months later, to the removal of her children.

This was the origin point.
The moment the truth was inverted.
The beginning of the safeguarding fiction.

What began as a woman reporting an assault became the false basis for criminal suspicion and psychiatric referral — all while the original attacker walked away, unchallenged, unfiled, and unreviewed.

SWANK records this not as an isolated event, but as the first spark in a long trail of procedural retaliation.


IV. Violations

  • Article 3, ECHR – Protection from degrading treatment

  • Article 8, ECHR – Right to family and private life

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability and race-based discrimination

  • Police Code of Practice – Failure to investigate a victim’s report in good faith

  • NHS Duty of Candour – Non-disclosure of incident or follow-up communication

  • Children Act 1989 (indirectly) – Use of fabricated risk narrative in later proceedings


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t an incident. It was an inversion.
Polly Chromatic walked into A&E struggling to breathe. She left as a fabricated threat — while her actual report was discarded.

This is how false narratives begin.
With one lie, one ignored complaint, and one piece of CCTV footage they refuse to watch.

SWANK will not allow this foundational reversal to be buried.
We will return to it every time the safeguarding myth resurfaces.
