An official threat of proceedings sent by Westminster’s Kirsty Hornal. Four children named. No crisis identified. Just punctuation, pressure, and procedural theatre.
I. What Happened
At 11:14 AM on 29 May 2025, Kirsty Hornal, Senior Practitioner at Westminster Children’s Services, emailed Polly Chromatic to confirm that the Council intended to initiate legal proceedings for a Supervision Order.
The email included:
A formal letter of intent
A PLO letter
A solicitor list
A follow-up email at 11:41 AM urging the recipient to “seek legal advice”
No safeguarding event triggered this escalation. No emergency occurred. But four children were named — and proceedings were promised. It came just days after public complaints and legal filings against the same department.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
Documented legal threat via email, not meeting, call, or assessment
No stated evidence of harm, just bureaucratic assertion
Simultaneous legal escalation and institutional retaliation
Children used as leverage in a procedural chess move against a complainant
Sent in tandem with physical post, suggesting formal strategy, not casual inquiry
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because this email is the administrative version of a warning shot.
It doesn’t protect children. It preserves bureaucratic dominance — timed precisely after public complaints, audit notices, and regulatory exposure.
It uses the format of formality — “please acknowledge receipt” — to hide the fact that nothing was actually triggered.
No event.
No new danger.
Just a letter.
Just a threat.
This email proves what many know but few can show: Safeguarding powers can be wielded reactively, punitively, and without cause — especially when the parent dares to write back.
IV. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t a safeguarding notice.
It was a jurisdictional tantrum.
We reject legal threats framed as “support.”
We reject the use of supervision orders as reputational retaliation.
We document every attempt to transform criticism into risk.
SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
When the paperwork arrives before the incident,
the incident is being manufactured.
And when a Council emails this —
we post it.
