“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

You Gave the Ombudsman the Evidence. The Council Gave You More Harassment.


⟡ “Submitted to the Ombudsman. Ignored by the Offenders.” ⟡

An evidence bundle provided to the Local Government Ombudsman (LGO), documenting RBKC’s role in retaliatory safeguarding abuse and procedural misconduct.

Filed: 10 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/RBKC/LGO-01
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-05-10_SWANK_LGO_Submission_RBKC_SupportingEvidenceBundle.pdf
This archive captures the exact materials sent to the LGO in support of a formal complaint against RBKC, highlighting cross-institutional collusion, email evidence, and safeguarding escalation patterns.

I. What Happened

In early May 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted an official complaint to the Local Government Ombudsman concerning:

  • Misuse of PLO protocols

  • Procedural ambush tactics

  • Failure to recognise disability accommodations

  • Coordinated efforts between RBKC and Westminster to bypass medical and legal safeguards

This file served as the accompanying supporting document package, containing referenced communications, disability declarations, and patterns of retaliatory action.

II. What the Record Establishes

  • That the LGO was provided with full visibility of misconduct

  • That RBKC’s safeguarding activity was already under complaint

  • That Polly Chromatic submitted a legally and medically supported claim

  • That silence or inaction following this submission amounts to procedural complicity

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because oversight bodies are only neutral until they ignore the oversight.
Because submission to the LGO isn’t just a request —
it’s a trigger point, and when ignored, becomes institutional evidence itself.
Because RBKC was already on notice.

And now the public is too.

IV. Violations

  • Failure to uphold due process in safeguarding application

  • Ignoring formal disability disclosure and legal protections

  • Breach of public body accountability under LGO review

  • Unlawful child welfare escalation after formal complaints

  • Ignoring patterns of documented retaliation

V. SWANK’s Position

When you give them the documents,
and they give you more retaliation,
you stop calling it oversight.

You start calling it state-aligned harm.

This was a submission to prevent that.
They chose to proceed anyway.

An Unqualified Visitor. A Borough With No Jurisdiction. A Child Who Said “No.”


⟡ A Social Worker Brought Her Mother to My House ⟡
Wrong borough. Wrong woman. Wrong questions.

Filed: February 2023
Reference: SWANK/RBKC/WCC-VIOLATION-01
๐Ÿ“น Watch the Full Visit – Four-Part Footage Series Below
A welfare visit conducted by a social worker’s mother. Documented. Disqualified. Now publicly archived.

I. What Happened

In February 2024, while I was recovering from illness and newly placed in Westminster after emergency accommodation, we reluctantly agreed to a visit despite ongoing severe sewer gas poisoning.

The visitor: Samira Issa, a social worker from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

The location: Westminster.
The company: Her mother.

Samira’s mother:

  • Was not introduced professionally

  • Led the conversation

  • Questioned my son

  • Commented on my children’s appearance

  • Dismissed my communication adjustment, which required all contact to be in writing due to disability

There was no safeguarding referral. No event. No concern raised by the child.
And yet — escalation was recorded. Without basis. Without consent.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

• Jurisdictional Breach – RBKC had no lawful authority to operate in Westminster
• Procedural Misconduct – A private civilian conducted a statutory welfare visit
• Disability Discrimination – My medically documented adjustment was ignored and penalised
• Safeguarding Fabrication – There was no incident, yet surveillance increased
• Professional Boundary Collapse – Lawful process was replaced by informal, personal intrusion

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because a social worker’s mother is not a safeguarding professional.

Because wrong borough interventions without emergency grounds are violations, not support.

Because when a disabled woman was recovering from illness, this was the state’s idea of care:

  • Ignore the written-only adjustment

  • Question a minor off-record

  • Comment on children’s appearance

  • Leave behind a paper trail of invented escalation

This wasn’t “misjudged.” It was institutional collapse, and it now lives in the public record.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept:
• Guest-led social work
• Weaponised jurisdiction
• Escalation by proxy
• Commentary as care
• Surveillance as substitute for support

The child spoke.
The footage exists.
The records show escalation without cause.
And SWANK records what cannot be erased.

I Filed My Adjustment. They Filed a Referral.


⟡ SWANK Education Misconduct Index ⟡

“Home Education Wasn’t the Problem. My Refusal to Comply Was.”
Filed: 23 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/OFSTED/COMPLAINT/2025-HOMEED-SAFEGUARDING
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-05-23_SWANK_Ofsted_Complaint_HomeEducation_Discrimination_SafeguardingMisuse.pdf

I. The Safeguarding Concern Wasn’t Educational. It Was Procedural Revenge.

This formal complaint, submitted to Ofsted, addresses the targeted misuse of safeguarding escalation by Westminster and Kensington & Chelsea against a disabled parent who dared to both:

  • Home educate lawfully

  • Refuse verbal meetings on medical grounds

They did not question the quality of education.

They punished the format of dissent.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The parent:

    • Is medically exempt from verbal communication

    • Lawfully home educates under Section 7 of the Education Act 1996

    • Filed multiple disability disclosures and evidence

  • The councils:

    • Attempted Child in Need coercion to override adjustments

    • Triggered safeguarding escalation when meetings were declined

    • Violated statutory guidance by ignoring suitable education criteria

  • The safeguarding process became:

    • Punitive, not protective

    • Based on administrative ego, not child welfare

    • A systemic retaliation dressed in pastel email chains

This wasn’t safeguarding.

It was procedural punishment for lawful refusal.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because we’ve seen it before:

  • Parents who file back

  • Children who thrive outside their gaze

  • And institutions that cannot bear to be ignored

We filed this because:

  • Home education is not a safeguarding concern

  • Disability is not a behavioural problem

  • And lawful refusal is not neglect

Let the record show:

  • The education was suitable

  • The parent was protected

  • The councils were enraged

  • And now — Ofsted has been notified

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept coercion disguised as care.
We do not permit safeguarding referrals to function as disciplinary tools.
We do not excuse councils who punish lawful parents for choosing autonomy over allegiance.

Let the record show:

The home was lawful.
The education was valid.
The complaint is formal.
And the archive — has indexed the retaliation.

This wasn’t about the children.
It was about a mother who said no — and meant it.

They Didn’t Attack Our Lessons. They Attacked My Voice.


⟡ SWANK Educational Complaint Record ⟡

“Lawful Education. Unlawful Retaliation. We Filed It With the DfE.”
Filed: 23 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/DFE/HOME-ED/2025-05-23
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-05-23_SWANK_DfEComplaint_HomeEducation_DisabilityDiscrimination.pdf

I. They Didn’t Question the Children’s Education. They Questioned the Parent’s Illness.

On 23 May 2025, SWANK London Ltd. filed a formal complaint with the Department for Education documenting harassment, procedural intrusion, and retaliatory safeguarding threats against a disabled home-educating parent.

The issue was not curriculum.
The issue was control.

The education was legal.
The provision was adequate.
The parent was disabled.
That, apparently, was the threat.

II. What the Complaint States

This complaint makes clear that:

  • The parent was harassed not for what she taught, but for refusing phone calls and unlawful visits

  • Disability adjustments (including written-only communication and medical exemptions) were treated as noncompliance

  • Children’s Services in Westminster and RBKC escalated safeguarding after the parent asserted legal rights

  • Education officers attempted backdoor surveillance via social work pathways, bypassing statutory thresholds

This was not about child welfare.
It was about punishing refusal to perform obedience.

III. Why This Filing Was Necessary

Because home education is legal.
Because disability is not suspicion.
Because safeguarding is not meant to discipline dissent.

This complaint asserts:

  • That lawful education became grounds for institutional stalking

  • That social services were used as an enforcement arm of tone policing

  • That what began as a request for information devolved into a threat

We did not wait for them to escalate again.
We filed the facts.
And now they are in the archive.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not justify legal education.
We expect the law to do that.
We do not apologise for disability adjustments.
We enforce them.

Let the record show:

The children were learning.
The state was watching.
And now the Department for Education is on formal notice.

This is no longer a misunderstanding.
It is a documented case of educational retaliation through procedural misuse.

ETHICS: A GUIDE FOR THE WOEFULLY UNDERQUALIFIED
(Also known as: The Curriculum You Never Received but Desperately Require)

๐Ÿ“ Filed From: Flat 22, 2 Periwinkle Gardens, London W2

✨ Ten Patterns of Ethical Behaviour for the Value-Deficient Professional

You claimed to need training.
I obliged.
Here lies the unsolicited induction course from your most persistent accountability specialist.

1. Honesty & Transparency
Admit fault. Name truth. Disclose what matters.
๐Ÿ•ณ If you’re redacting to self-protect, you’ve already disqualified yourself from service.

2. Fairness & Justice
Equal treatment ≠ equal failure.
๐Ÿ“‰ Cease targeting whistleblowers while coddling incompetence.

3. Respect for Others
Particularly the disabled. Especially the unafraid.
๐ŸŽง Try silence. It’s less oppressive than your standard interruptions.

4. Accountability
Forwarding isn't accountability. Nor is “noted.”
๐Ÿงพ If you can't carry the consequences, don't issue the decisions.

5. Altruism
Policy compliance is not compassion.
๐Ÿ’ธ Being paid to care is not the same as caring.

6. Confidentiality
Stop broadcasting family names in mixed-email chains.
๐Ÿ”’ You’re not in reception gossip. You’re in statutory breach.

7. Courage
Draft the real minutes. Submit the real report.
๐ŸŽ™ Integrity is not conditional on office consensus.

8. Humility
Learning is not beneath you. Though perhaps ethics are.
๐Ÿฅ€ If you've never said sorry, you're overdue.

9. Environmental Responsibility
Respiratory harm counts too.
๐ŸŒซ If your visit induces breathlessness, you are not delivering support—you are delivering trauma.

10. Professional Integrity
Post-complaint edits are not policy—they're pathology.
๐Ÿ“š Start showing up like you're human, not rehearsed.

Eric and Jess Came Over. They Saw Ballet Shoes and Boxes. They Wrote a Book About Trauma (And Invented a Urine Bin).


๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 12 July 2023
WE WERE NEVER ASSESSED. WE WERE OBSERVED AND JUDGED.
Also Titled: “Eric and Jess Came Over. They Saw Ballet Shoes and Boxes. They Wrote a Book About Trauma (And Invented a Urine Bin).”

Filed Under: Social Worker Surveillance, Narrative Fabrication, Health Disregard, Observation Bias, Fictional Evidence, RBKC Gaslighting, Legal Pre-Lit

๐Ÿท️ Subject: RBKC Initial Contact

Conducted by: Eric Wedge-Bull & Jessica Miller
Sanctioned by: Robert Young, Gatekeeper of the Imaginary

๐Ÿงพ Allegation:

“We received a police report… cannabis… shouting… a bin filled with urine…”

๐Ÿงป Let’s pause here:

THERE WAS NO URINE BIN.

None.
Not present.
Not visible.
Not documented by anyone who attended the home.

But it made its way into the official record — because social work, in this case, prefers the literary genre of fictional hygiene horror over actual observation.

๐ŸŽญ What Was Actually Observed:

  • A family preparing for a move

  • Boxes — naturally.

  • Children: articulate, engaged, joyful

  • No cannabis

  • No signs of neglect

  • No distress

  • No “urine bin”

  • Just a chronically ill mother doing her best while stalked by bureaucratic nonsense

๐Ÿ‘ฉ‍๐Ÿ‘ง‍๐Ÿ‘ฆ The Children:

  • Described their mum as loving, warm, supportive

  • Shared stories of ballet, gymnastics, coding, gardening, play

  • One child said: “Mummy does everything for us.”

  • Another said: “We hug her when she’s sad.”

No fear. No confusion. Just familial tenderness.
Which, of course, the system mistrusts.

๐Ÿ“š The Narrative Pivot:

“Three police referrals…”
“She gets angry…”
“There might be trauma…”
“She should probably get therapy…”
“And — again — there was allegedly a urine bin…”

Because when abuse can’t be found, the state will reach for metaphor.

๐Ÿง  Let Us Be Very Clear:

This was not an “assessment.”
It was speculative surveillance disguised as support.

And where truth didn’t cooperate, fiction filled the gaps.

๐Ÿงพ Conclusion:

  • No cannabis use by the mother

  • No risk to the children

  • No urine bin — just a lie printed in a PDF

  • No distress — except the kind caused by being repeatedly watched, questioned, and gaslit by the very agencies assigned to “help”

If I Can’t Breathe, I Also Can’t Chat


๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 9 February 2024
THE ART OF NOT LISTENING: Social Work as a Performance of Deafness

Filed Under: Disability Discrimination, Verbal Coercion, Retaliatory Safeguarding, Email Theatre, Reasonable Adjustment Violations, Medico-Legal Escalation

Dear Samira Issa,

You have now contacted me three times regarding the same incident. The same. Let us say it in a larger font for the bureaucrats at the back:

I HAVE ALREADY RESPONDED.

And yet — despite a documented, medically mandated refusal to speak on the phone due to asthma, PTSD, and muscle tension dysphonia, you wrote:

“Would you be able to meet with me in person? A verbal conversation will be beneficial…”

Bene-ficial.
To whom, exactly?

Because it is certainly not beneficial to me, a mother with a breathing condition so severe that it has hospitalised me. Nor is it lawful, moral, or in compliance with Equality Act 2010 standards.

Let Us Clarify the Hierarchy of Needs:

  • Breathing > Bureaucracy

  • Safety > Surveillance

  • Written Adjustments > Forced Conversation

You do not get to override disability law to suit your referral performance metrics.

You are not an agent of support. You are an agent of repetition.

This is harassment.
This is a violation.
This is legal evidence.

Your refusal to acknowledge written instructions is no longer merely inappropriate. It is institutional negligence. And worse — it is part of a pattern. The same hospital. The same incident. The same referral. Again. Again. Again.

I do not need help.
I need you to stop pretending not to understand.

So, let me be emphatically, typographically clear:

NO.
I will not speak on the phone.
NO.
I will not come to your office.
NO.
I will not engage with a safeguarding system that is, in practice, a loop of psychological abuse.

I have now retained legal counsel.

Expect a formal action regarding:

  • Medical negligence

  • Disability discrimination

  • Institutional harassment under the guise of “concern”

Until then, refrain from contacting me outside of strictly written, legal correspondence.

If you require clarification, please re-read the above. In fact, re-read this entire dispatch aloud in your office — and then ask yourself why social work has become the front desk of systemic trauma.

I Already Told You I Can’t Breathe, But You Keep Dialling

 ๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 9 February 2024

We Do Not Consent to Medical Gaslighting Loops

Filed Under: Bureaucratic Harassment, Disability Disregard, Institutional Loops, Medical Negligence, Written Communication Mandate

Dear Samira Issa,

Thank you ever so much for ignoring the numerous emails where I have already explained that I cannot speak on the phone due to severe asthma, panic attacks, and a speech-affecting disability. The silence I requested was not an invitation for repeated verbal coercion.

Let’s clarify something in the Queen’s serif:

  • You are not entitled to a verbal conversation.

  • I have already answered this referral.

  • It is the same incident.

  • Again.

  • Yes. Still the same.

If you are concerned about your own mental health, you may wish to investigate why you are contacting a disabled mother again for an incident already handled — again. I suggest the mirror. Or perhaps a printed copy of the Equality Act 2010 in bold font, Times New Roman, size 48, glued to your screen.

Your insistence on phone calls is both medically negligent and legally inappropriate, considering:

  • I am under medical instruction to limit all verbal speech.

  • My communication adjustment needs have been documented.

  • You are in breach of reasonable adjustment obligations.

And now, you're pursuing in-person meetings — as if dragging a breathless mother into your office is somehow a safeguarding act? It isn’t. It’s harassment.

I have now retained a solicitor for medical negligence and will be including Kensington & Chelsea Children’s Services in a legal claim for sustained emotional distress, harassment, and disability discrimination.

You may consider this a written cease and desist notice. Any further attempts to coerce verbal or in-person communication without medical clearance will be recorded and submitted as additional evidence of retaliatory safeguarding.

This isn’t support. It’s surveillance.
This isn’t care. It’s coercion.
This isn’t safeguarding. It’s sabotage.

And no, I will not be calling you back.

Ever.

You Invited Yourselves Into My Home—And Called It Concern

 ๐Ÿ–‹️ ⟡ SWANK Politeness Obituary ⟡

20 February 2024

Politeness Withdrawn. Respect Declared Non-Reciprocal.

I. Respect and Kindness Are Not Institutional Habits

In this 15:32 iPhone missive, Polly Chromatic addresses Samira Issa, Eric Wedge-Bull, and Glen Peache with the composure only a violated woman of reason can sustain. Bcc’d, naturally, to Nannette Nicholson for public memory.

She writes:

“I don’t appreciate being forced to have humans in my home whom I do not trust and whom have treated me disrespectfully.”

“Additionally, I don’t appreciate being bothered while I am sick.”

This is not a request.
It is a post-mortem of institutional etiquette.

II. When You’ve Been Too Polite for Too Long

Noelle continues:

“I realise that you don’t care and that you don’t understand how to treat humans with kindness and respect.”

A line functioning both as diagnosis and closure.
A sentence worthy of social work training manuals under:

“Why Families Withdraw.”

She ends with:

“Thank you for your understanding.”

An exquisite final stroke — snide, formal, and true.

III. This Was Not a Letter. It Was a Ritual Revocation of Access

Polly was sick.
Her trust was broken.
Her home was entered.
Her tone remained regal.

This is how you close a door —
elegantly, and with no keys left inside.

No Phone, No Office, No Verbal Anything—Not Now, Not Ever


⟡ SWANK Closure Dispatch, Final Addendum ⟡

9 February 2024

When Your System Requires Sound to Hear, It’s Already Broken

I. Verbal Closure, Written with Finality

A week of repeated refusals culminates in one line, issued via iPhone:

“I will not speak verbally anywhere.”
— Polly Chromatic

It is not an option.
It is a legal boundary, an access doctrine, a quiet refusal in perfect defiance.

Not in-person.
Not on the phone.
Not for you.

II. Institutional Ignorance in Four Easy Steps

What did RBKC Children’s Services ignore?

❌ No verbal phone calls
❌ No in-person meetings
❌ Documented asthma = communication disability
❌ Legal representation confirmed
❌ Referral already addressed, nothing new disclosed

Samira Issa read it all. Then asked again.
That isn’t care. That’s systemic recursion with a badge.

III. Written Sovereignty in a Spoken-World System

This isn’t defiance.
It’s functional autonomy under duress.

Written communication is participation.
Verbal coercion is exclusion.

Polly doesn’t owe another explanation.
She wrote it once. It now enters the permanent legal record.

No Phone. No Office. No More.


⟡ SWANK Final Boundary Dispatch: Verbal Refusal Edition ⟡

9 February 2024

Verbal Communication Is Not Required to Comply with the Law

I. The Simplest Legal Boundary in a System Addicted to Talking

Following Samira Issa’s latest pivot from phone to in-person meeting, Polly Chromatic ends the procedural spiral with seven words that require no further performance:

“I will not speak verbally anywhere.”

Not by phone.
Not in person.
Not for show.
Not for anyone’s comfort.

It is not avoidance.
It is juridical restraint with medical cause.

II. The Pattern Reiterated

Samira’s insistence echoes the systemic refrain:

“A verbal conversation will be beneficial…”

Despite:

  • Documented asthma

  • A written-only communication directive

  • Ongoing solicitor involvement

  • Repeated refusals lodged in writing

This isn’t care.
It’s ableist coercion by insistence.

III. Assertive Clarity Is the New Formal Protocol

Polly’s refusal isn’t a mood.
It’s a communication doctrine.

  • Written is not lesser.

  • Refusal is not defiance.

  • Silence is not avoidance—it is survival.

She does not need to justify her medical reality every time a new social worker joins the thread.

She says:

“No. Not like that.”

That is the whole sentence.


© SWANK London Ltd. All Patterns Reserved.
Silence is not avoidance—it’s survival. And clarity is the highest form of no.

You Already Said You Read It—So Why Are You Still Writing?


⟡ SWANK Exhaustion Dispatch, Iteration Final ⟡

9 February 2024

Nothing Has Happened. Except More Emails from You.

I. The Redundant Loop Closes In On Itself

Another contact from Samira Issa, this time shifting from ignored phone call requests to an in-person meeting—still refusing to acknowledge the already defined boundary.

Her justification?

“A verbal conversation will be beneficial…”

Polly Chromatic’s reply is surgical:

“Nothing new has happened and I do not have time. Thank you.”

II. The Performance of Acknowledgement Without Action

Samira writes:

“I have read them all… I have made sure to read the previous file…”

Yet she continues to:

  • Ignore the solicitor notice

  • Ignore the asthma-related phone barrier

  • Ignore the repetition clause

  • Ignore the explicit refusal of contact

This is not safeguarding.
This is bureaucratic defiance masquerading as care.

III. Boundary Maintenance as Emotional Labour

Polly should not have to say:

  • No to phone calls

  • No to meetings

  • No to referral repetition

  • No to unpaid emotional labour

But she does. Repeatedly. Calmly. Legally.

“Nothing new has happened and I do not have time.”

That is more than enough.


© SWANK London Ltd. All Patterns Reserved.
She has said no more ways than the law requires. If they contact her again, it’s not social work—it’s stalking.

Filed Under: assessment repetition, respiratory discrimination, safeguarding escalation, RBKC misconduct, Section 47 abuse, medical dismissal, parenting criminalised, 2022 allegations recycled, Samira Issa pattern, facts ignored, disability weaponised

“We already did this.
Twice.”
— Polly Chromatic, who keeps being investigated for things she’s already disproven

In this direct response to Samira Issa, dated 3 March 2024, Polly Chromatic reminds RBKC that:

  • Two full social work assessments were already completed:

    • One in November 2022

    • Another in June 2023

  • The concerns now being cited are recycled from 2022 and already addressed

  • The hospital made no formal findings, and police took no action

So why the escalation?

Because Polly tried to explain — multiple times — that she couldn’t speak due to acute eosinophilic asthma.

That’s it.

She couldn't breathe.
So they opened a Section 47.

๐Ÿ—‚️ I. Timeline of Contradictions

  • Nurses said they had no concerns

  • Then they claimed possible intoxication — never medically evaluated

  • Then social workers said the concern was leaving her kids alone — though she had a friend stay with them

  • Then suddenly the concerns were from 2022, already assessed twice

๐Ÿ‘ฉ‍๐ŸŽ“ II. Parenting as Punishment

Polly also notes that:

  • Her children are highly educated, well-travelled, and active in their community

  • They’ve already discussed family topics in two prior assessments

  • They are regularly engaged in educational and social activities outside the home

Yet somehow — these facts don’t register in the eyes of RBKC.

Because the goal isn’t truth.
It’s compliance through confusion.

๐Ÿงพ SWANK Commentary

You ask for answers
and then ignore the ones already given.

You say there are new concerns
but they’re dated from two years ago.

You say she’s uncooperative —
because she’s gasping for air.

And you call that
child protection.

Samira’s Mum Spoke for Her. I Spoke for Myself — with Evidence.

 ๐Ÿ“ฌ SWANK Dispatch: I Scheduled an Appointment with a Social Worker — She Showed Up with Her Mum

๐Ÿ—“️ 25 February 2024

Filed Under: safeguarding fraud, retaliatory referral, hospital cover-up, verbal silence as misconduct, social worker incompetence, Section 47 abuse, systemic cruelty, institutional escalation, RBKC gaslighting

“She said she’d come with a colleague.
She brought her mum.”
— A Sick Mother Who Had Already Filed a Hospital Complaint

On 4 February 2024, Polly Chromatic was hospitalised with eosinophilic asthma. Instead of medical care, she received suspicion: hospital staff — failing to understand her condition — filed a false safeguarding referral alleging erratic behaviour and possible intoxication.

What followed was a bureaucratic theatre of errors orchestrated by Samira Issa, a social worker at RBKC Family Services.

Despite:

  • Already being familiar with Polly’s case

  • Knowing the referral was medically misinformed

  • Being told Polly could not speak due to asthma

  • Being clearly informed of ongoing complaints and legal action

Samira opened a Section 47 enquiry — escalating the matter from suspicion to “investigation” — under false pretences.

๐Ÿ‘€ What Actually Happened

  • Samira confirmed in writing she’d be attending the visit with a colleague

  • Instead, she arrived with an unnamed woman, who turned out to be her mother

  • Samira did not speak during the visit

  • Her mother conducted the entire visit, questioning Polly’s children about homeschooling — not about the hospital referral

  • No ID, no procedural documents, no reference to the actual concern

๐Ÿ“‚ What Noelle Documented

  • Email proof of Samira lying about attending with a professional colleague

  • Full correspondence with timestamps confirming harassment and disregard for medical condition

  • Video evidence of the unprofessional home visit:

  • Audio evidence of the hospital misconduct that triggered it all:

⚖️ Why This Matters

  • Section 47 powers are serious: they’re used when a child is at risk of significant harm

  • Invoking one without cause — especially when retaliation is involved — is procedural abuse

  • Bringing a family member to a safeguarding visit instead of a registered social worker violates every standard of professional conduct

๐Ÿงพ SWANK Commentary

You were told I couldn’t speak.
You were told I was filing complaints.
You were told this was a retaliation case.

So you brought your mother.

And still — not one word from you.

Why My Children Never Want to Speak to a Social Worker Again

 ๐Ÿ“ฌ SWANK Dispatch: He Said He’d Restore Our Faith in Social Work. Instead, He Traumatised My Children in Public.

๐Ÿ—“️ 5 January 2024

Filed Under: public interrogation, child distress, coercive safeguarding, RBKC misconduct, sewer gas ignored, asthma requests dismissed, assessment failure, social worker surveillance, adultism, mother-blame culture

“He said he’d restore our faith.
Instead, he interrogated my sons on a playground.
In front of their new friends.
Without me there.
Now they call it abuse.”
— A Mother Who’s Had Enough of Empty Promises and Repeated Harm

This formal letter from Polly Chromatic to Rebecca Webber of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea documents a disturbing interaction on 5 July 2023, when social workers Eric Wedge-Bull and Jess visited her family’s new home at 37 Elgin Crescent.

What was promised as a rebuilding of trust became yet another violation of boundaries, dignity, and psychological safety.

๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿฝ I. Public Interrogation as “Assessment”

  • Eric asked Polly to leave her sons, Kingdom and Prerogative, with him at the community garden playground

  • He questioned them without consent, in front of peers and adults

  • The children returned visibly shaken

  • They later described Eric’s approach as aggressive and humiliating

  • The community later reprimanded Polly for bringing outside professionals into the shared space — a detail that adds to the emotional fallout and isolation

๐Ÿซ II. Ignored Requests, Unfinished Assessments

Despite Polly asking Jess for:

  • Help with medical counselling for eosinophilic asthma

  • Legal support to change their names

No follow-up was ever sent.
No formal report was issued until months later, and only after Noelle emailed chasing it in response to a hospital-instigated safeguarding referral.

The report had clearly never been finished.
Eric apologised — but the damage was done.
Repeated patterns of ghosting, abandonment, and surveillance had returned yet again.

๐Ÿง  III. What This Mother Knows

  • She’s been working with children since age 10

  • Formerly a teacher, daycare worker, nanny

  • Still in contact with the mothers of all the families she’s cared for

  • Repeatedly praised by neighbours and community members for her parenting

  • Not a single community member has raised concerns — only distant professionals operating on projections

✋ IV. The Demand

“My children do not want to be questioned again.
We are not supported by social workers.
We experience them as abusive.”

Polly states clearly: leave us alone.
Her children were abused by social workers in Turks and Caicos, and their most recent encounter in London has left them retraumatised.

SWANK Summary:

He came to repair trust.
He broke it further.

They asked for asthma support.
They got silence.

They offered openness.
They received surveillance.

Now they’re closing the door — and writing it down.

When the Council Asks If the Ceiling Fixed Itself


⟡ SWANK Housing Neglect Archive ⟡
“Can You Update Us On Whether We Did Our Job?”
Filed: 26 October 2023
Reference: SWANK/RBKC/LEAK-DORNAN-01
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2023-10-26_SWANK_RBKC_Leak_Complaint_Justine_Dornan.pdf

I. This Wasn’t Casework. It Was Administrative Gaslighting by Inquiry.

On 26 October 2023, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea responded to a housing complaint with a masterstroke of inversion:

“Could you update us on whether the water was dealt with?”

Translation: We are not here to confirm resolution. We are here to request evidence of your own continued suffering.

Instead of assuring, they inquired.
Instead of fixing, they redirected.
Instead of documenting the outcome of their own intervention, they asked the vulnerable tenant to report back — like a subcontractor with no salary, no authority, and no recourse.

This is not public service.
It is institutional dampness — literal and bureaucratic.

II. What the Correspondence Confirms

That RBKC Environmental Health:

  • Treated health-endangering damp as an open-ended anecdote

  • Made no mention of follow-up inspection, action, or confirmation of remedy

  • Requested a phone call despite the known written-only adjustment

  • Failed to offer any structural, medical, or safeguarding consideration in response

And that the line between indifference and procedure has all but vanished.

This email wasn’t just a failure to follow up.
It was a formal reminder that nothing had ever been followed through.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because requesting an update on your own unfulfilled duty is not just negligent — it’s humiliating by design.
Because housing neglect often arrives wearing a civil tone and a council logo.
Because being asked to confirm that your living space is still unsafe is the cruelest form of outsourced compliance.

We filed this because:

  • This is how housing departments hide rot — not just in ceilings, but in policy

  • The burden of reporting was passed back to the person already harmed

  • No apology, no urgency, no solution — just damp and a digital shrug

Let the record show:

The ceiling peeled.
The floor warped.
The air thickened.
And the council’s reply? “Did that all stop yet?”

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept emails that pose as updates when they are admissions of failure.
We do not accept that health-threatening damp should be “confirmed” by the person reporting it.
We do not accept disability-breaching phone requests under the guise of helpfulness.

Let the record show:

This wasn’t follow-up.
It was abdication.
And SWANK — logs every polite atrocity in the annals of institutional erosion.

Because sometimes, the mould on the wall grows faster than the bureaucracy meant to stop it.

How to Trigger a Section 47 Without Evidence: A Royal Borough Manual


๐Ÿ“Ž The Email Summons That Wasn’t: RBKC’s Harassment Masquerading as “Concern”
Download the Evidence Summary (PDF) – RBKC, Issa, Hodgson: Email Complaint & Section 47 Trigger
Filed: 31 May 2025 — Full correspondence log, formal letters, and Section 47 escalation trail
Reference: SWANK/RBKC/EMAILS-01
Author: Polly Chromatic

I. Disabled? Documented? Disturbed Anyway.

In yet another baroque episode of bureaucratic theatre, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) triggered a Section 47 investigation against a medically disabled mother—without incident, without basis, and without shame.

The source? A hospital referral riddled with fiction and filtered through the lens of prejudice: namely, that a single, asthmatic, non-drinking mother attending A&E must somehow be suspect.

The referral itself came after multiple incidents of clinical negligence at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital. What followed was not child protection—but bureaucratic punishment, with RBKC social workers swooping in to demand explanations via phone call, then email, then uninvited presence.

II. Medical Theatre and Email Intrusions

Polly Chromatic attended A&E in early February 2024 while in visible respiratory distress—documented, recorded, and body-cammed due to past mistreatment. She was met with suspicion, delay, and questions about her children—not her lungs. Nurses speculated about substance use (she is teetotal), treatment was denied or delayed, and notes were distorted.

Shortly thereafter, Samira Issa, social worker for RBKC, emailed under the guise of “concern.” In reality, she was initiating surveillance via soft intrusion. Polly refused a phone call. She demanded written-only contact, invoked her disability rights, and rebutted the fictional narrative of neglect with timestamps, oxygen stats, and named witnesses.

Despite this, she agreed—with protest and preparation—to a home visit on 21 February 2024. All four children were present. The flat was clean. No incident occurred. And yet—

They escalated anyway.

III. Bcc’d and Documented to the Hilt

Polly’s responses were not casual emails. They were legal letters, cc’d and bcc’d to NHS complaints bodies, safeguarding officers, hospital trusts, and local authority managers. Rhiannon Hodgson of RBKC confirmed receipt of her documents ahead of a child protection meeting.

The result? A Section 47 investigation based not on safeguarding, but on resistance. The refusal to be gaslit. The refusal to be silent. The refusal to pick up the phone and “just chat.”

It was punishment for documentation.

IV. Bureaucracy vs Evidence

This archive exists for one reason: to show what they do when you document them. The PDF linked above includes the full trail—referrals, replies, letters, hospital summaries, body cam notes, and cross-copied complaints.

It is an exhibit in state-level retaliation disguised as “care.”

Decorum is no substitute for accountability


๐Ÿ›️ A Treatise on Institutional Negligence: A Formal Appeal to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman

Date: 10 March 2025
To: Complaints Team, Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman
Address: PO Box 4771, Coventry, CV4 0EH

๐ŸŽฉ Dear Sir or Madam,

I write to you not merely as a concerned citizen, but as an individual compelled — regrettably yet unavoidably — to illuminate the full breadth of dereliction, discrimination, and administrative decay suffered at the hands of Westminster City Council and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC).

My submission to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman seeks formal redress for conduct that has been not only negligent, but wholly incompatible with the standards of lawful governance in a civilised society.

๐Ÿ“œ I. Catalogue of Institutional Failings

The conduct of multiple local government departments has been, in a word, indefensible. In particular:

  • Westminster and RBKC Social Services, whose operatives initiated baseless interventions while wilfully disregarding my documented disabilities and statutory requests for reasonable adjustments.

  • RBKC Environmental Health, which despite numerous formal complaints, abjectly failed to investigate or address the presence of toxic sewer gas at my former residence — a matter of public health, not mere private inconvenience.

  • Westminster City Council, which declined to provide even the most elementary support services under the Equality Act 2010, preferring procedural inertia to lawful obligation.

⚖️ II. Breaches of Statutory and Ethical Obligations

The failures detailed above constitute violations of numerous legislative frameworks, including but by no means limited to:

  • The Local Government Act 1974, mandating investigation of complaints and delivery of fair public administration — standards left conspicuously unmet.

  • The Equality Act 2010 (Section 20), wherein the duty to make reasonable adjustments was not merely neglected, but dismissed with visible disdain.

  • The Housing Act 2004, imposing obligations to rectify habitability risks — obligations your authorities treated as suggestions, not statutes.

๐Ÿฉบ III. Consequences of Neglect

As a direct and foreseeable consequence of these cascading institutional failures, I have endured:

  • Significant physical deterioration, resulting from prolonged exposure to an uninhabitable and toxic environment.

  • Persistent emotional distress, caused by unjustified and intrusive social service interventions, more concerned with spectacle than substance.

  • Financial hardship, necessitated by an emergency relocation no person — let alone a medically vulnerable parent — should ever be forced to self-finance.

๐Ÿ› ️ IV. Remedies Requested of the Ombudsman

I respectfully request that the Ombudsman:

  1. Conduct a comprehensive investigation into RBKC and Westminster’s sustained failures to meet statutory responsibilities.

  2. Mandate immediate and enforceable corrective measures to prevent recurrence.

  3. Require mandatory disability competence training for all relevant personnel, to combat the evident illiteracy regarding protected rights.

  4. Recommend formal redress, including financial compensation proportionate to the gravity of harm inflicted.

๐Ÿ–‹️ V. Conclusion and Anticipated Response

It is with considerable disappointment — though not, alas, with surprise — that I must pursue external recourse, having exhausted all internal avenues.
I therefore request a formal response within 28 calendar days, outlining the Ombudsman’s intended course of action.

Should satisfactory redress not be forthcoming, I shall pursue legal action under the Equality Act 2010 and for negligence under public law principles.

Please confirm receipt of this correspondence and advise accordingly.

Yours faithfully,

Polly
