I. What Happened
Let’s be clear: my four American children and I were already recovering from a near-death respiratory crisis caused by sewer gas poisoning when the British State decided to launch a performance art piece entitled: How Many Procedural Failures Can You Commit Before We Sue You in Three Jurisdictions at Once?
Instead of investigating the environmental hazard, correcting the misdiagnosis, or — heaven forbid — providing support, Westminster social workers used this period of crisis to build a case against me that included:
False allegations of intoxication
Sunglasses worn indoors
Vague claims of “mental illness”
And now, the pièce de résistance:
A fabricated suicide video.
Yes — a social worker reportedly told one of my children that she had a video of me threatening to kill myself. No such video exists. No such event occurred. No such allegation was made in court, ever. The entire thing is a fictional scriptwhispered to a minor by a civil servant wearing the wrong perfume.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
That the safeguarding process in this country is not a protective mechanism.
It’s a reputational assassination pipeline — weaponising disability, maternal devotion, and medical trauma to pathologise anyone who challenges authority with articulate resistance.
Instead of offering tutors, stability, or basic human curiosity, Westminster opted for narrative construction over support. At no point did they engage with the actual problem — they just fabricated new ones.
My children and I were in crisis.
They chose to harass, surveil, and lie.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because this is not an isolated event — it’s an archetype.
It is what happens when institutional boredom meets procedural illiteracy.
And because, quite frankly, we remain amused by the ignorance surrounding us.
We attend contact sessions three times a week where “professionals” monitor me to ensure I don’t hurt the same children I homeschooled, advocated for, and protected through international relocation, environmental collapse, and the hostile architecture of British bureaucracy.
The performance is exhausting — for them.
We’re just documenting it in real time.

V. SWANK’s Position
This incident is now formally logged in:

The Judicial Review bundle
My complaint to Social Work England
And the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue — where clarity and contempt are legally admissible.
We’re not waiting for your integrity.
We’re waiting for your mistakes to pile high enough to form a witness stand.
VI. Postscript:
While the Entire United Kingdom Tries to Figure Out What’s Going On…
We’re simply sitting here,
crocheting through contact,
annotating your failures,
and waiting for you to wake up to reality.
Because we already know what happened.
We wrote it down.
