Chromatic v Westminster & RBKC (No. 63): On the Spectacular Collapse of a Fabricated S.34 Listing



⟡ THE HEARING THAT NEVER WAS: A CASE STUDY IN LOCAL AUTHORITY AMNESIA AND ADMINISTRATIVE SELF-CANNIBALISM ⟡

Filed: 28 November 2025
Reference Code: SWANK/WCC-RBKC/01CORE-S34-LISTINGFAILURE
PDF: 2025-11-28_PC20013_01Core_Administrative_CFC_LA_HMCTS_ApplicationConflict_S34HearingVacateRequest.pdf
Summary: RBKC/Westminster panic-email HMCTS to beg for the cancellation of a hearing they caused, denied, and could not explain.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

On 28 November 2025, the Local Authority—represented by RBKC’s Rosita Moise—sent an email dripping with administrative desperation, pleading with HMCTS to vacate a hearing they insisted did not exist and yet urgently needed removed.

The chain is a masterpiece of bureaucratic self-incrimination:

  • The LA filed an S.34 application on 12 November.

  • HMCTS listed a hearing for 1 December because of that application.

  • The LA claimed they “could not see” their own application.

  • The LA’s solicitor, Ms. Khan, insisted a hearing had already occurred on 13 November.

  • HMCTS confirmed the LA did file the application and that’s why the hearing was listed.

  • The LA then begged the court for “urgent confirmation today” that the hearing was vacated.

It is rare to watch an institution contradict itself in real time with this level of confidence and confusion.

This is not administration.
This is performance art.


II. WHAT THE DOCUMENT ESTABLISHES

  1. The Local Authority does not know what applications it has submitted.
    They filed an S.34, then insisted they hadn’t.

  2. Their own solicitor contradicted their own record.
    A judicially recognised form of institutional doublethink.

  3. HMCTS had better knowledge of the LA’s filings than the LA itself.
    Always reassuring.

  4. The LA tried to erase a hearing by pretending it was unnecessary.
    A novel approach to public law.

  5. The administrative confusion directly affects Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir, whose lives are shaped by people who cannot recall their own actions.

  6. The Local Authority cannot track its litigation, yet insists it can manage four medically complex children.

  7. The tone of panic (“VERY URGENT”) reveals their internal fear that the court will see the truth:
    they caused the hearing, then denied it, then tried to bury the evidence.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

SWANK logged this because:

  • It is a pure specimen of Local Authority incompetence preserved in textual form.

  • It shows the breakdown of internal communication between Legal, Social Care, and external solicitors.

  • It reveals the LA’s willingness to misrepresent procedural history to HMCTS.

  • It demonstrates administrative gaslighting aimed at reshaping judicial memory.

  • It affects the legal landscape around Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir by showing that the institutions controlling their lives cannot control their inbox.

This is Core Evidence not because it is dramatic,
but because it identifies the structural idiocy that underpins the entire case.


IV. APPLICABLE STANDARDS & VIOLATIONS

• Family Procedure Rules — Duty of Candour:
Violated by the LA’s contradictory statements.

• Children Act 1989 — Institutional Competence Requirement:
Entirely absent.

• HMCTS Interaction Standards:
Undermined by the LA’s attempt to rewrite its own litigation history.

• Public Law Duties:
Incompatibility demonstrated in writing.

• Human Rights Act — Article 6 fairness:
Threatened when institutions fabricate, forget, and reinvent procedural facts.


V. SWANK’S POSITION

SWANK states, with judicial poise and aesthetic contempt:

An institution that cannot remember its own application has no business managing four children’s lives.

The panic-vacate request is not an administrative query; it is an admission of systemic dysfunction.

Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir remain displaced under the authority of bodies that cannot distinguish:

  • what they filed,

  • when they filed it,

  • why they filed it,

  • or whether the court should know.

SWANK therefore enters this entry as Exhibit LA-63,
a perfect specimen of Local Authority chaos disguised as correspondence.

In re Her Majesty’s Misstep: On the Collapse of Law, Logic, and Email Literacy in the Crown’s Safeguarding Apparatus



👑 The United Kingdom of Failure

Or, How a Nation That Once Ruled the Seas Now Can’t Find a Tutor, a Risk Threshold, or a Phone Number


Metadata

  • Filed: 8 August 2025

  • Reference Code: SWANK/UK/FAILURE/2025

  • PDF Filename: 2025-08-08_SWANK_Post_UnitedKingdomOfFailure.pdf

  • Summary: A ceremonial indictment of institutional ineptitude, procedural fantasy, and the Dickensian fog still choking 21st-century safeguarding in Britain.


I. What Happened

Once upon a mismanaged archipelago, a disabled American mother asked for medical care — and received defamation.
She asked for asthma accommodations — and received surveillance.
She asked for dialogue — and got a Section 47.
She asked for her children’s rights — and was told to stop asking questions.

In the United Kingdom of Failure, that’s just Tuesday.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This is not a nation struggling to uphold the law.
This is a nation ignoring it, burying it in PDF formatting errors and court delays so long they may qualify as archaeological eras.

The failure is:

  • Not cultural misunderstanding — but willful ignorance.

  • Not risk mitigation — but paperwork cosplay.

  • Not safeguarding — but safebreaking: a system that cracks open families for sport, then forgets the combination to put them back together.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the kingdom has no clothes, and we have the screenshots.

Because safeguarding by vibes is not legal.
Because “contact center” is not a synonym for “gulag with crayons.”
Because the Home Office has had more rebrands than a midlife influencer.
Because no child’s asthma management plan should depend on whether the caseworker checked their inbox.

Because someone had to write it down — and we always do.


IV. Violations

  • The Children Act 1989 – All of it, apparently unread.

  • Article 8 ECHR – Still doesn’t mean “you can just take them.”

  • Article 6 ECHR – The right to a fair hearing does not mean “eventually, if the printer works.”

  • Equality Act 2010 – A bedtime story for departments who find disability “confusing.”

  • UNCRC Articles 3, 9, 12 – Now available in theory only.

  • Bromley Family Law (textbook) – Page 640 is crying.


V. SWANK’s Position

The United Kingdom once sent ships around the world. Now it sends emails saying:
“We are unable to confirm receipt at this time.”

This is not just a collapse of professionalism. It is theatrical competence, performed by people who think “safeguarding” is a synonym for “don’t email back.”

We reject the bureaucratic gaslight.

We reject the procedural purgatory.

And we hereby record: the United Kingdom of Failure is a registered archive in the SWANK Catalogue of Institutional Embarrassment.

Your move, Albion.

Chromatic v. Social Development: A Formal Response to the Allegation of Allegation



⟡ The Audacity of Absence: When Bureaucrats Blame Mothers for Ignoring Documents That Were Never Sent ⟡

A Five-Point Rebuttal in the Key of Constitutional Outrage and Administrative Memory Loss


Filed: 9 November 2020

Reference Code: TCI-FCHAMBERS-2020-DISPUTE-NARRATIVE
Court File Name: 2020-11-09_Records_MarkFulfordLegalResponseToDSDClaims.pdf
Summary: A letter from F Chambers, on behalf of Polly Chromatic, dissecting the procedural fantasy in which one can be called “non-compliant” with a plan that never existed and never arrived.


I. What Happened

In reply to the Department of Social Development’s letter dated 11 September 2020 — which accused Polly Chromaticof failing to cooperate — Mark A. Fulford, Managing Partner of F Chambers, issued a calibrated correction in the form of eviscerating legal courtesy.

It revealed the following:

  • Polly had submitted years’ worth of correspondence to the Department — all ignored.

  • The so-called August 2019 Care Plan was never served, never signed, never seen.

  • The Department's claim of "concern" lacked a single disclosed complaint, report, or medical justification.

  • The only definitive conclusion available was this: if anyone failed to engage, it was the Department — not the mother.


II. What the Letter Establishes

  • That no parent can be “non-compliant” with a document that was never delivered.

  • That the Department had not provided Polly with even one official record of the case allegedly built against her.

  • That for three years, the only "engagement" the Department could offer was absence — until counsel was retained.

  • That the children were reportedly in “good health” when seen by a doctor, rendering the basis for any Care Plan both medically unnecessary and legally incoherent.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is not law. This is spectacle posing as procedure.

Because it takes a particular form of colonial officiousness to accuse someone of failing to comply with paperwork that was never sent.

Because safeguarding should never rely on phantom documents and delayed disclosure — and mothers should not be required to guess what the State thinks they did.

Because Polly Chromatic has always complied — with the law, with the record, with the reality. It is the Department that refused to meet her there.


IV. Violations

  • Turks and Caicos Islands Constitution Order 2011 – Right to be informed of accusations, right to fair process

  • Natural Justice – Right to see the evidence against you

  • Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance 2015 – Care Plans must be documented, shared, and lawful

  • Professional Ethics for Social Workers – Transparency, procedural clarity, family engagement

  • Data Protection Principles – Failure to disclose official reports upon request


V. SWANK’s Position

This legal letter is a clinic in how to dress contempt in velvet.

It is what happens when a mother’s dignity is weaponised against her, and she responds by hiring counsel who drafts justice in iambic pentameter.

The Department failed to engage for three years. It lost its records. It forgot its duties. And when finally confronted, it fabricated the appearance of a Care Plan to shift the burden of failure.

We are not here for appearances. We are here for the record.

And in this case, the record is missing — but the mother is not.
