“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

When Offered a Witness, Westminster Chose Violence

Email from Polly Chromatic to Westminster Children’s Services suggesting that the building caretaker — Krystyna — could confirm family wellbeing. Ignored in favour of continued statutory hostility.


I. What Happened

On 28 April 2025, Polly Chromatic wrote to Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown, offering a simple and obvious alternative to invasive PLO escalation: ask the building caretaker.

The message explained that:

  • The caretaker sees the family daily

  • She has observed nothing of concern

  • The social workers could verify this at any time

  • Written communication and respectful boundaries were being maintained

  • No hostility or secrecy existed — only lawful medical boundaries

It was a calm, cooperative offer. It was met with silence.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Westminster had peaceful, low-impact, third-party options to verify wellbeing

  • The parent proactively offered access to local non-family witnesses

  • Escalation via PLO was not necessity — it was choice

  • The “safeguarding risk” narrative is undermined by parent-led transparency

  • The refusal to accept this offer demonstrates procedural bias, not protection


III. Why SWANK Filed It

This email reveals a profound truth: Westminster never wanted verification — they wanted submission. When a parent invites outside confirmation and the authority declines, the goal is no longer child protection. It’s coercion.

SWANK archived this document to:

  • Prove that alternative verification routes were offered and refused

  • Undermine Westminster’s claim that formal intervention was necessary

  • Preserve written evidence of institutional inflexibility and bad faith


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Failure to exercise least intrusive measures

  • Equality Act 2010 – Escalation in retaliation for disability-related adjustments

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (family life), Article 14 (discrimination)

  • Social Work England Standards – Failure to explore non-statutory options

  • Working Together 2018 – Ignoring available local sources of safeguarding support


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t escalate to PLO when a neighbour is available. You don’t invoke safeguarding while ignoring the very people who can confirm the children are thriving. You only do that when your real goal is institutional dominance — not child protection.

SWANK London Ltd. demands:

  • A full review of why third-party verification was dismissed in this case

  • A written apology for misrepresenting the family as uncooperative

  • A procedural mandate that external non-statutory verification must be considered before formal escalation

She Asked for Assessments — Not Accusations.



⟡ If You Think They Need Assessing, You Can Pay For It. ⟡
When a mother offers what the system won’t — evidence, clarity, and professional evaluation.

A formal request to Westminster Children’s Services demanding they fund private psychiatric assessments for all four children after triggering PLO without cause or clinical grounding.


I. What Happened

After initiating PLO proceedings under flimsy pretexts and procedural sleight-of-hand, Westminster offered no meaningful evaluations — only judgment.
So the mother demanded something better:
Qualified, neutral, psychiatric assessments for all four children.
Paid for by the party making the accusations.


II. What the Request Establishes

  • That the mother was proactive, not defensive

  • That she sought independent, clinical truth — not institutional spin

  • That Westminster offered no diagnostic rationale for its escalation

  • That the family’s wellbeing was being dragged through a legal process without psychological clarity


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because the party demanding intervention should also demand evidence.
Because safeguarding without clinical assessment is suspicion with paperwork.
Because if you’re going to accuse a family, you’d better be ready to prove it — with more than just Kirsty’s opinion.


IV. Violations Identified

  • Procedural Escalation Without Diagnostic Foundation

  • Lack of Statutory Psychological Support

  • Discriminatory Targeting of Disabled Children

  • Misuse of Safeguarding Language Without Evaluation

  • Refusal to Fund or Facilitate Proper Assessment


V. SWANK’s Position

The only “concern” that stands up in court is the one with clinical backing.
This letter wasn’t just a request — it was a dare.
A challenge to the state: if you’re so certain these children need help, put your money where your safeguarding file is.
The mother’s offer was lawful, measured, and documented.
Their silence will be, too.

The Social Worker Cried, Then Called a Lawyer — And You’re Still Calling It Child Protection?



⟡ She Cried. She Panicked. She Threatened a Disabled Parent. And She Still Has a Case. ⟡
A safeguarding officer who can’t regulate her emotions should not be supervising anyone else’s.

A formal referral raising concerns about Kirsty Hornal’s psychological unsuitability for child welfare duties, based on erratic conduct during statutory procedures.


I. What Happened

Kirsty Hornal entered the PLO process with visible emotional instability:
Crying in meetings. Making threats. Sending coercive emails to a disabled mother — while disregarding the mother’s medical exemption from verbal communication.
This document formally outlines the concern: that Ms. Hornal’s personal conduct is so emotionally volatile it compromises her professional capacity.
It is not just about policy now. It is about psychological fitness for authority.


II. What the Referral Establishes

  • That Kirsty Hornal displayed unregulated emotional behaviour during sensitive safeguarding matters

  • That she used personal distress as a rationale for escalating intervention

  • That her actions jeopardised the safety and legal rights of a medically exempt parent

  • That her continued involvement creates reputational risk for Westminster and harm for service users


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because children’s welfare should not depend on whether the caseworker is having a good day.
Because a social worker crying mid-procedure is not a symbol of care — it’s a sign of collapse.
Because what starts as emotional instability becomes institutional liability.
And because if the public is watching, they deserve to know who’s running the case.


IV. Violations Identified

  • Emotional Misconduct in a Safeguarding Role

  • Retaliatory Contact with Medically Exempt Parent

  • Breach of Objectivity and Procedural Impartiality

  • Abuse of Power Under Psychological Duress

  • Safeguarding Misuse Escalated by Personal Emotion


V. SWANK’s Position

No child should be placed at the mercy of a professional who cannot manage her own distress.
No parent should be coerced by someone using mental instability as a policy instrument.
And no institution should be allowed to pretend this is normal.
This is not just about Kirsty.
It is about every single person who let her keep the case.
