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 2010, Fraud Act 2006, Human Rights Act 1998, and Children Act 1989
Notes ongoing referrals to Social Work England, Metropolitan 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.
