“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.

In Re: Injuries Without Answers – Regal’s Knuckles and Prerogative’s Arm Under State Custody



🪞 SWANK London Ltd.
He Bled in Silence
Regal’s Knuckles, Prerogative’s Arm, and the Sound of State Neglect


Filed:
2 August 2025

Reference Code:
SWANK-ADDENDUM-0825-INJURYVISIBLE

Filename:
2025-08-02_SWANK_Addendum_Knuckles_BruiseEvidence.pdf

1-Line Summary:
Visible injuries on Regal and Prerogative observed during contact — unexplained, unreported, and indicative of ongoing abuse in state-arranged care.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

On 1 August 2025, during a supervised contact session at the Contact Centre, the mother, Polly Chromatic, observed that:

  • Regal’s knuckles were scraped and bleeding.

  • Prerogative had a distinct bruise on his upper left arm.

Both boys appeared frightened, subdued, and emotionally flat. Regal, age 16, dismissed the injury by claiming he "fell," while visibly avoiding eye contact and showing signs of emotional distress. No explanation was offered by the carers. The children’s affect was markedly different from previous visits.

Regal discreetly handed his journal to his mother — a coded attempt to speak without words. His entries further confirm degrading conditions in the foster placement, including water restrictions, surveillance, emotional abuse, and coercive control.


II. WHAT THE INJURIES INDICATE

This is not hygiene oversight. It is not playtime bruising. It is institutionalised harm manifesting on skin:

  • Scraped knuckles are consistent with defensive injury or punishment.

  • Unexplained arm bruising may reflect restraint, rough handling, or physical discipline — all categorically prohibited.

  • Refusal to speak is not “reluctance”; it is fear.

  • Journal entries are now forensic artefacts — testifying in ways the children no longer feel safe to.

These are children who know they cannot tell the truth without punishment. That silence is itself the evidence.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

Because the bruises are real.
Because the silence is coerced.
Because Regal, a child with asthma, is bleeding and no one in authority has sounded the alarm.

And because if you can see this and still do nothing — you have no business in safeguarding.


IV. VIOLATIONS

  • Children Act 1989 – Duty of protection and care violated

  • Article 3 ECHR – Inhuman and degrading treatment of a child

  • Article 8 ECHR – Violation of bodily integrity and private life

  • UNCRC Article 19 – Failure to protect child from all forms of physical or mental violence

  • Fostering Regulations 2011 – Breach of standards for safe placement

  • Health & Safety – Negligent oversight in safeguarding of minor


V. SWANK’S POSITION

Regal bled. Prerogative bruised.
And the carers — agents of the state — offered no explanation, no record, no care.

The mother filed a police report (Ref: TAA-38034-25-0101-IR) and submitted sworn evidence. Yet the foster carers remain in charge, and the children remain under control.

This post stands as recordreproach, and retaliatory mirror. It declares:

You may try to bury the truth —
but bruises surface.
And the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue does not forget.

Filed in unshakable fidelity to the children’s pain,
Polly Chromatic

In Re: The Notebook of No Contact – A Minor’s Evidence Against a Major Violation



🪞SWANK London Ltd.

THE NOTEBOOK OF NO CONTACT

A Supplementary Prosecution Entry in Re: A child's Journal and the Criminality of Containment


Metadata

Filed: 1 August 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-LOI-KH-JOURNAL-0825
Filename: 2025-08-01_CriminalSupplement_KirstyHornal_JournalEvidence.pdf
1-Line Summary: A child's handwritten journal is submitted as primary child voice evidence in the private criminal prosecution of Kirsty Hornal.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

Polly Chromatic has now submitted a Supplementary Evidentiary Filing to Westminster Magistrates’ Court in the ongoing private criminal prosecution of Ms. Kirsty Hornal, social worker, Westminster Children’s Services.

The new filing includes:

  • Photographed pages from a child’s handwritten journal, documenting distress, asthma deterioration, and the emotional impact of arbitrary restrictions.

  • Legal arguments situating the journal as primary evidence of psychological harm, excessive control, and retaliatory containment under Kirsty Hornal’s supervision.

The child is a 16-year-old U.S. citizen.
He is not a suspect. He is not on trial.
He is simply trying to breathe — and write.


II. WHAT THE COMPLAINT ESTABLISHES

The complaint against Ms. Hornal is no longer rooted in procedural misconduct alone. It now includes:

  • Psychological abuse by authority

  • Medical neglect through restriction of activity

  • Suppression of communication and expression

  • Unlawful interference with family life and autonomy

His journal is not poetic. It is precise.

He writes:
"I can’t ride bikes anymore because of one mistake."
That sentence alone indicts the safeguarding fiction.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

Because a child's asthma should not worsen in state care.
Because withholding pencils is not therapeutic.
Because mocking accents is not professional conduct.
Because emotional surveillance is not safeguarding.

And because the only thing more dangerous than a silent child is one who writes — and whose parent reads.


IV. CRIMES AND GROUNDS ESTABLISHED

Criminal Grounds under Magistrates’ Court Act 1980 & Children Act 1989:

  • Emotional cruelty under the guise of supervision

  • Negligent restriction of medical routines (asthma care)

  • Wilful interference with parental rights and contact

  • Abusive use of authority over a minor

  • Retaliatory containment of expression

Supporting Doctrines:

  • Article 8 ECHR – Family Life

  • Article 3 UNCRC – Best Interests of the Child

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability Discrimination

  • Safeguarding Breach – Abuse of Position and Oversight

This is no longer a complaint. It is a ledger of criminality — handwritten by the child who endured it.


V. SWANK’S POSITION

The journal pages have been submitted to:

  • Westminster Magistrates’ Court

  • The Family Court (ZC25C50281)

  • Social Work England

  • Relevant safeguarding and human rights monitors

The LOI now includes:
First-person, contemporaneous child testimony.

This is not a parental grievance.
This is a prosecution.

Chromatic v Glen: On Asthma, Apathy, and the Administrative Loitering of Westminster City Council



THE WARNING BREATHED

On the Art of Saying “This Is Your Fault” Without Raising Your Voice

Filed by: SWANK London Ltd
Author: Polly Chromatic
Filed Date: 25 February 2024
Reference Code: SWANK/WCC/EMAIL-GLEN-0225
PDF Filename: Glen 25 February 2024 4.pdf
Summary: A miniature dispatch of respiratory consequence — documenting medical risk, institutional fatigue, and quiet accountability.


I. What Happened

In the early months of 2024, while Westminster authorities continued to circulate false claims and procedural obstruction, the mother sent a calm and factual update to Glen, a Westminster staff member entangled in the spiralling safeguarding fiction.

The message was short.
It referenced:

  • A sharp asthma escalation caused by procedural stress

  • The mother’s recent respiratory and vocal complications

  • The presence of her children, who were witnessing the deterioration

  • The absence of institutional care, despite full awareness

It is a single paragraph that functions as an indictment.


II. What the Email Establishes

This message operates as a quiet escalation — a pre-litigation moment where the institution was warned, clearly, calmly, and medically.

It establishes:

  • That the harm being documented is foreseeable

  • That the mother’s deteriorating health is a consequence of procedural harassment

  • That her children are present, watching it unfold

  • That the institution was told — and chose to proceed anyway

It is a soft-spoken letter of liability.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is what procedural cruelty looks like:
Not slamming doors — but silent inboxes.
Not direct assault — but cumulative erosion of function, breath, and hope.

You do not get to receive this email and later say:
“We didn’t know.”

You knew.
You were told.
And you proceeded.

This is not correspondence.
This is archived culpability.


IV. Violations (If Ignored)

  • Article 3 ECHR – Inhuman and degrading treatment through health-related neglect

  • Article 8 ECHR – Violation of family life and parental function

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability discrimination through inaction

  • Safeguarding Standards – Duty of care breach for medically compromised parent and children

  • Duty of Candour and Public Law – Failure to respond to direct notification of risk


V. SWANK’s Position

This email is not evidence of a mother’s frailty.
It is evidence of Westminster’s decay —
A record of how they were told, in plain language,
that harm was occurring —
and they did nothing.

It is a quiet message, yes.
But in the archive, it resounds like a siren.

Chromatic v Newman (Supervisory Retaliation: Silence, Neglect & Institutional Harm)



CRIMINAL FILING – PRIVATE PROSECUTION BUNDLE

Polly Chromatic v Sarah Newman

on the Matter of Wilful Retaliation, Supervisory Negligence, and Strategic Silence


Filed: 26 July 2025

Reference: SWANK-SN-PP-0726

Court File Name: 2025-07-26_CriminalProsecution_SarahNewman_WilfulRetaliation.pdf

One-line Summary:

Private criminal prosecution bundle filed against Ms. Sarah Newman for supervisory complicity, unlawful silence, and procedural evasion under active safeguarding harm.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

Despite receiving dozens of documented objections, oversight notifications, and statutory clarifications, Ms. Sarah Newman – Executive Director of Bi-Borough Children’s Services – remained silent in the face of escalating procedural breaches, emotional harm, and retaliatory interference against the mother and four U.S. citizen children.

Throughout 2024–2025, she was directly copied on more than 60 formal communications, all evidencing:

  • Contact obstruction and material deprivation

  • Misuse of safeguarding authority

  • Evasive documentation practices

  • Endangerment of medically vulnerable children

At no point did Ms. Newman issue a corrective action, initiate inquiry, or uphold her duty of review. She has instead engaged in strategic omission, allowing misconduct to proliferate under her administrative supervision.


II. WHAT THE COMPLAINT ESTABLISHES

This filing lays criminal information for:

  • Misconduct in Public Office (Common Law)

  • Wilful Neglect of Duty (Children and Young Persons Act 1933)

  • Complicity in Perverting the Course of Justice

  • Disability-Based Discrimination (Equality Act 2010)

The evidence includes all emails, assessments, objections, and procedural notices from March–July 2025. These documents show that Ms. Newman knowingly permitted unlawful conduct by her social work team, specifically:

  • Kirsty Hornal,

  • Sam Brown,

  • and other caseworkers under her direct line of authority.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

Because inaction is not neutral.
Because bureaucratic silence is not impartial.
Because willful blindness from senior leadership is criminal when children are harmed.

SWANK has now submitted three criminal prosecution bundles—each evidencing a coordinated institutional patternof:

  • Evidence suppression

  • Disability erasure

  • Judicial interference

  • Emotional sabotage

Ms. Newman’s supervisory position renders her directly accountable. Her refusal to intervene renders her legally liable.


IV. VIOLATIONS

  • Common Law Misconduct in Public Office

  • Children and Young Persons Act 1933, s.1

  • Perverting the Course of Justice

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Articles 6, 8, 14

  • Equality Act 2010 – Sections 15, 19, 20, 21

  • Children Act 1989 – Sections 17, 47, 22(4)


V. SWANK’S POSITION

Ms. Newman’s failure to protect the procedural, emotional, and educational welfare of the children under her care—despite full briefing and repeated warnings—constitutes a grave dereliction of public duty.

She is no longer a neutral party in this case. She is a named and prosecutable defendant.

This bundle is a formal laying of information to Westminster Magistrates' Court. The filing was submitted alongside a complete evidentiary bundle and master record of all prior communications.


🪞Mirror Court Note

Silence at the top is a decision.
Neglect at this level is orchestration.
SWANK has filed what she ignored.

In the Matter of Methane, Messaging, and the Manufactured Myth of Safety



🪞The Flat That Poisoned and the Authority That Pretended Not to Smell It

In the Matter of Elgin Crescent and the Sewer Gas Files


⟡ SWANK London Ltd. Evidentiary Archive

Filed Date: 13 July 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-A07-ELGINWHATSAPP
Court File Name: 2025-07-13_Addendum_ElginCrescent_HousingHazard_WhatsAppEvidence.pdf
Summary: A formal evidentiary submission documenting the WhatsApp correspondence regarding the persistent sewer gas leak at Elgin Crescent, W11 — evidence that was dismissed, downplayed, and deliberately excluded from institutional risk assessments.


I. What Happened

Between June and October 2023, Polly Chromatic and her four children — all U.S. citizens — were housed at 37 Elgin Crescent, a privately rented flat in Kensington.

From the outset, the property emitted the unmistakable stench of sewer gas. Complaints were raised. WhatsApp messages to the landlord and agents documented the escalating smell, its health impacts, and the failure of multiple “fixes” to address the crisis.

And yet — no Environmental Health action.
No rehousing.
No formal risk declaration.

Instead, Polly was forced to remain in the property for months, despite her eosinophilic asthma, despite worsening symptoms, and despite the direct medical harm it caused to her and her children.

This addendum presents the unfiltered, time-stamped digital trail — messages ignored, hazards denied, and harm incurred.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  1. The housing at Elgin Crescent was unsafe and medically hazardous.

  2. The landlord and agents were repeatedly informed, acknowledged the issue, and failed to resolve it.

  3. No statutory body intervened to relocate the family or initiate emergency mitigation.

  4. Subsequent safeguarding narratives erased the existence of this environmental crisis entirely.

  5. The family’s documented health deterioration was predictable, preventable, and institutionally ignored.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because asthma is not anecdotal.
Because a mother begging for breathable air is not “difficult” — she is suffocating.
Because WhatsApp is where landlords make promises — and where silence becomes evidence.
Because children should not have to inhale methane while bureaucrats inhale reports.


IV. Violations

  • Housing Act 2004 – Category 1 hazard under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System

  • Children Act 1989, s.17 & s.47 – Failure to safeguard children from environmental harm

  • Equality Act 2010 – Failure to accommodate disability-related risks

  • Environmental Protection Act 1990 – Statutory nuisance unaddressed

As Bromley’s Family Law (11th Ed., p. 646) reminds us:

“Environmental hazards affecting family health may constitute a breach of both public law and safeguarding obligations if known authorities fail to act.”

They knew.
They acted like they didn’t.


V. SWANK’s Position

We reject the doctrine of ‘invisible danger.’
We reject the silence of landlords who respond only when sued.
We reject the state’s comfort with rebranding negligence as “parental concern.”

This was not an overreaction.
It was the slow criminalisation of breath.

And if the Kingdom wants to pretend sewer gas didn’t matter, let them read the WhatsApps — and hold their breath while they do it.

Re Access (Medication, Devices, and Emotional Stability) [2025] SWANK 37 They removed the children and left their prescriptions behind.



⟡ Urgent Request for Contact, Medical Access & Personal Devices – Case ZCXXXXXX ⟡
Chromatic v. The Bureaucracy That Forgot the Children Had Lungs [2025] SWANK 37 — “You took the children. You do not get to take the inhalers too.”

Filed: 1 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/ZCXXXXXXXX/EMERGENCY-DELIVERY
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-01_ZCXXXXXXXX_Urgent_Request_Contact_Medication_Delivery_Personal_Devices.pdf
Formal request for immediate contact, asthma medication access, and return of essential personal devices post-EPO.


I. What Happened
On 1 July 2025, Polly Chromatic issued an urgent formal request to Westminster Children’s Services, seeking immediate arrangements for:

  1. Direct video or phone contact with her four children

  2. Delivery of essential asthma medications and medical supplies

  3. Retrieval of the children’s personal devices — including iPads and iPhones — to restore communication, learning, and emotional stability

This request followed the Emergency Protection Order of 23 June and documented rising concern over medical noncompliance and severance of child-parent communication. A neutral third party was requested to facilitate the arrangements due to the known triggering nature of continued contact with named officers.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Children with chronic medical needs were removed with no continuity-of-care plan in place

  • Emotional contact has been obstructed without lawful justification or proportionality

  • Basic therapeutic tools (devices, photos, comfort items) have been withheld

  • Requests have been procedurally delayed while the children’s psychological and respiratory stability worsens

  • Professionals continue to insert themselves into mediation despite documented psychiatric objections


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because in 2025, children should not have to wait three working days for a rescue inhaler.
Because institutional pride is not a sufficient reason to obstruct maternal contact.
Because iPads are not luxury items — they are neurological stabilisers in digital form.
Because children are not safer without their medication, without their mother, and without a phone.
And because the inhalers, the calls, and the devices are not accessories — they are safeguards you confiscated.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §§22, 34 – Obligation to safeguard medical continuity and facilitate contact

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Art. 8 – Right to maintain family connection and health-related access

  • Equality Act 2010, §20 – Failure to accommodate parental disability in procedural design

  • NICE Guidelines (NG80, NG26) – Neglect of emergency asthma protocols in children under care

  • UNCRC, Articles 9, 24 – Denial of contact and healthcare continuity for minors under state protection


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t just removal. It was de-equipping children of survival tools.
We do not accept a care framework that cancels asthma care without consultation.
We do not accept state custody becoming a black box of silence and lost belongings.
We do not accept contact that must be begged for in triplicate.
The medication is overdue. The contact is overdue. The decency is long expired.
SWANK has filed. Westminster has three days. After that, the archive escalates.

Chromatic v Westminster: In Re The Doctrine of Sibling Non-Severance



“Separated Without Cause, Reunited by Law?”

A Judicial Review Addendum on the Impermissible Splitting of an American Sibling Group


Filed Date: 24 June 2025

Reference Code: SWANK/JR/0624-NONSEPARATION
Court Filename: 2025-06-24_Addendum_JR_NonSeparationRequest_Copy
One-line Summary: A formal judicial plea to prevent the institutional separation of four U.S. citizen siblings unlawfully taken into UK care.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, four disabled U.S. citizen children—Regal (16), Prerogative (13), Kingdom (10), and Heir (8)—were removed without warning by Westminster Children’s Services in a procedurally unlawful operation.

This addendum, filed one day later, responds to immediate concerns that the children—who were raised as a bonded sibling unit with joint medical routines and a shared care plan—might now be separated into fragmented placements without legal mandate or therapeutic rationale.

There is no care order that directs separation. There is no conflict between siblings. There is only silence—and the growing risk that this sibling group will be scattered across institutional placements, severing their primary protective relationships.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That all four children were removed as a group, from a non-hazardous home, with no safeguarding history requiring sibling separation.

  • That each child is a known asthma patient under shared NHS management, making coordinated medical care essential.

  • That no lawful order has been issued to justify or explain separate placements.

  • That separation would constitute an institutional infliction of trauma layered on top of an already unlawful seizure.

  • That U.S. consular protections, disability oversight, and safeguarding ethics have all been ignored in equal measure.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because sibling groups are not administrative collateral—they are families.

Because Westminster Children’s Services appears prepared to dismantle a bonded, medically fragile sibling group without judicial scrutiny or ethical justification.

Because the harm of separation is not abstract—it is compounded, irreversible, and entirely preventable.

Because this is not “child protection.” It is child fragmentation as a policy convenience.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Sibling preservation principles

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (right to family life)

  • Equality Act 2010 – Discriminatory disruption of coordinated disability care

  • United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child – Articles 3, 9, 23

  • Best Practice Guidelines – “Sibling Togetherness” standard in Looked After Children guidance


V. SWANK’s Position

These children are not case numbers. They are bonded siblings, medical patients, U.S. citizens, and trauma survivors of a system that cannot—or will not—justify its actions.

This addendum is more than a legal formality. It is a declaration of protected unity: that this sibling group shall not be broken apart by bureaucrats playing at crisis management.

Let it be known: any separation carried out in the absence of lawful instruction and psychological justification shall be filed, named, and preserved—as state-induced relational harm.

SWANK London Ltd. files this for the record. And for the children.

Re Four Children (Medical Risk, Cultural Erasure, and Contact Denial) [2025] SWANK 35 The transition from safeguarding to sanctioned harm.



⟡ Formal Record of Harm: Unlawful Isolation, Medical Endangerment & Procedural Cruelty ⟡
Chromatic v. The Architecture of Disconnection [2025] SWANK 35 — “This isn’t safeguarding. It’s engineered silence.”

Filed: 2 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/ZC25C50281/RECORD-OF-HARM
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-02_Statement_of_Harm_Contact_and_Medical_Breach_ZC25C50281.pdf
Comprehensive statement on denial of contact, cancellation of asthma care, and isolation of four U.S. citizen minors under care.


I. What Happened
On 2 July 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal legal record detailing the unlawful conditions her four children have endured since their removal on 23 June. The record includes:

  • Cancellation of asthma treatment appointments at Hammersmith Hospital without consultation

  • Absence of prescriptions or supervision protocols for children with chronic asthma

  • Complete severance from familial, cultural, educational, and emotional anchors

  • Withheld letters, unreturned belongings, blocked correspondence, and no address provided for comfort items

  • One week of total contact denial, despite a court-ordered minimum of two sessions per week

What had been a life of movement, joy, and relational stability was replaced with isolationconfusion, and documented medical risk.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • There has been a clear breach of medical duty to children with complex health needs.

  • Contact denial has caused active emotional deterioration, psychological distress, and cultural dislocation.

  • Public officials have overridden continuity of care without justification — and without documentation.

  • The children’s rights as U.S. citizens, as asthmatic patients, and as subjects of judicial protection are actively being ignored.

  • “Safeguarding” has become the pretext through which disconnection and harm are being delivered with bureaucratic elegance.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because what has been inflicted here is not removal. It is deletion.
Because children should not be punished for procedural panic or reputational cleanup.
Because asthma is not a narrative — it is a condition with inhalers, triggers, and protocols.
Because four children had their care systems dismantled in a week — without anyone calling that “harm.”
Because a safeguarding framework that erases family life is not lawful. It is performative abuse.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, §§22, 10 – Duty to maintain continuity and involve parents in health and care

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 3, 6, 8 – Protection from degrading treatment, family life, and due process

  • UNCRC, Articles 3, 9, 24 – Best interests of the child, right to contact with parents, highest attainable health

  • Equality Act 2010, §149 – Failure to consider protected characteristics and health vulnerabilities

  • NHS Constitution – Right to continuity of medical care and patient involvement in planning


V. SWANK’s Position
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was architecture — designed to break continuity, connection, and compliance.
We do not accept silent children as a system's success.
We do not accept contact blocked by omission and care denied by calendar.
We do not accept cultural erasure disguised as procedural logistics.
This was not care. It was disappearance.
And SWANK has now formally filed the harm you hoped would remain informal.

Indirect Contact, Direct Contempt

In re Chromatic v. Westminster, Concerning the Prevention of Improvised Contact, the Collapse of Court Authority, and the PHSO’s Auto-Acknowledgement of Nothing


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-JUR-0625-PHSO-INDIRECT
Court File Name: 2025-06-25_SWANK_CourtDirection_PHSO_IndirectContactPrevention
1-line summary: Request submitted to court and oversight bodies to prevent unlawful indirect contact from social workers during active litigation; met with automated silence.


I. What Happened

On 25 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal request for court direction to prevent unlawful indirect contact with her children by Westminster Children’s Services. This followed repeated safeguarding breaches, private messaging, and procedural gamesmanship designed to bypass legal oversight.

The request was simultaneously lodged with the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO).

The result:
multilingual wall of hyperlink-stuffed nothingness, inviting the complainant to repeat herself in multiple formats or wait 30 days for a caseworker to add the email to a drawer.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That social workers were bypassing direct contact restrictions via informal methods

  • That no legitimate oversight was exercised by the court or administrative bodies

  • That even requests made in formal legal language and crisis context are routed to public FAQ centres

  • That the prevention of harm is not a priority — but the formatting of the complaint is

Oversight bodies don’t mind abuse.
They mind incomplete forms.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because improvised contact by state agents during litigation is not a mistake — it’s a technique.
Because the children of a mother in active court proceedings are not institutional playthings — nor should their access to communication be governed by invisible hands and multilingual disclaimers.

SWANK logs this email to document a truth we already knew:
When contact is unlawful, they make it untraceable.
When complaints are lawful, they make them unreadable.


IV. Violations

  • Unlawful indirect contact

  • Safeguarding breaches amid declared legal filings

  • Judicial evasion through non-formal communication tactics

  • Administrative neutralisation of emergency complaints

The PHSO received a request to prevent child contact manipulation.
They replied with opening hours and Braille availability.


V. SWANK’s Position

The failure to act is no longer abstract.
It is timestampedhyperlinked, and replied to with contemptuous efficiency.

This case will proceed without PHSO intervention — because SWANK does not beg for assistance.
We record the rot.
We publish the archive.
We weaponise the delay.

And when indirect contact is used to destabilise the parent-child bond, we name it what it is:
Institutional grooming through official channels.

In re Chromatic v. Westminster, Concerning the Improvised Polyglot Collusion of Social Workers During Active Litigation



⟡ SWANK London Ltd. Evidentiary Archive

Private Messaging, Public Shame

In re Chromatic v. Westminster, Concerning the Improvised Polyglot Collusion of Social Workers During Active Litigation


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-EX-0625-WCC-FORLANG-BREACH
Court File Name: 2025-06-25_SWANK_SafeguardingBreach_Westminster_PrivateMessaging_ForeignLanguage
1-line summary: Westminster social workers contacted minors via private messages in a foreign language during an active legal case, violating safeguarding norms.


I. What Happened

During active legal proceedings, Westminster Children’s Services initiated unsupervised private messaging with minor children using a foreign language not previously agreed upon or approved.

This tactic was deployed outside formal contact channels — despite a standing objection from the mother, an open Judicial Review, and multiple police reports regarding safeguarding retaliation.

Ofsted responded with a timed template, noting that replies to school concerns may take up to 30 working days. Children, apparently, can wait.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Direct safeguarding breach by contacting children privately during proceedings

  • Use of non-English communication to obscure oversight and avoid detection

  • Procedural evasion via non-transparent contact

  • Institutional resistance to lawful parental objections and litigation notices

This is not contact. It is surveillance in sheep’s clothing.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because language is not neutral.
Because private messaging during legal conflict is not informal — it is strategic manipulation disguised as communication.
Because no social worker, in any safeguarding context, should be contacting vulnerable children off-record and off-language.

SWANK documents this breach not merely as misconduct, but as a cultural symptom of how social workers navigate power through access.


IV. Violations and Institutional Implications

  • Violation of safeguarding procedure (unsupervised, unrecorded contact)

  • Language-based circumvention of parental and legal oversight

  • Obstruction of justice during active N1 and JR filings

  • Failure of Ofsted response mechanisms, despite receipt and timestamp

Children were contacted.
Privacy was invaded.
Oversight responded with an FAQ.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not negligence. It is deliberate choreography.
To contact a child in a language their legal team does not monitor is not only unethical — it is linguistic trespass.

SWANK London Ltd asserts that Westminster’s actions constitute a covert attempt to shape narrative and complianceduring active litigation. This violates not only safeguarding principles, but the very premise of procedural fairness.

And Ofsted?
They offered a call centre schedule.

Chromatic v Westminster (Informality as Evasion: On WhatsApp, Kreyol, and the Lawless Disguise of Safeguarding)



⟡ “Kreyol Isn’t a Loophole” ⟡
Illicit Contact in Haitian Creole as a Jurisdictional Workaround


Filed: 25 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/EVIDENCE/0625-02
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-25_SWANK_Evidence_Westminster_KreyolContactBreach.pdf
A formal evidentiary addendum documenting Westminster’s backchannel contact in Haitian Creole with a foreign national during active safeguarding litigation.


I. What Happened

Between 22 and 24 June 2025, Westminster Children’s Services contacted the children’s father—who resides outside the UK—using WhatsApp and Haitian Creole, despite written directives requiring all communication be channelled through legal counsel. This occurred amid consular escalation and ongoing jurisdictional dispute.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Contact was initiated informally, outside any legal process.

  • Messages were sent in a non-official language to obscure oversight.

  • The father is a non-UK resident foreign national, implicating consular rights.

  • Prior instructions prohibiting such communication were knowingly bypassed.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

This event typifies a growing pattern: institutional actors bypassing formal legal constraints through cultural or linguistic ‘informality,’ often under the guise of care. When systems cannot operate within the law, they try to perform care in the shadows. We logged it because visibility is the first antidote to institutional opportunism.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – failure to respect formal parental rights

  • Article 37(b), Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (1963) – diplomatic overreach

  • Procedural Misconduct – violation of documented communication redirection


V. SWANK’s Position

You do not get to bypass court orders by speaking Kreyol.
You do not get to act like the law doesn’t apply just because a foreign parent doesn’t speak English.
And you do not get to improvise contact strategy mid-litigation.
This was not safeguarding — this was safeguarding mimicry.

Chromatic v Metropolitan Police: In the Matter of Unlawful Removal, Missing Orders, and Procedural Theatre



⟡ “No Order, No Justification, Just Screams” ⟡
A filmed removal. Five officers. Zero paperwork. A legal vacuum with blue epaulettes.

Filed: 26 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/METPOL/SF-REMOVAL-01

Video evidence and incident account of a child removal conducted without lawful authority, warrant, or safeguarding rationale.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025 at 1:30pm, five uniformed officers from the Metropolitan Police entered the family residence at London W2 6JL. They proceeded to remove all 4 children from their mother, Polly Chromatic (Director, SWANK London Ltd.), without presenting a court order, warrant, emergency protection order, or any written documentation whatsoever. The children were visibly distressed, begging not to be separated from their lawful parent.

The removal was filmed in full and is now publicly available via SWANK’s evidentiary archive:

🎥 Watch the removal video


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural Breach: No lawful authority presented — no warrant, no emergency order, no Section 20 consent, and no legal threshold met for removal.

  • Human Impact: Four broken-hearted children forcibly removed from their home, weeping and terrified, with no trauma-informed mitigation.

  • Power Dynamics: Five armed agents of the state versus one disabled mother and her children, with no safeguarding professional present.

  • Institutional Failure: A policing body acting extrajudicially, bypassing court authority, with no documentation or clinical oversight.

  • What’s Not Acceptable: When the law is absent and uniforms are present, we are not in a democracy. We are in performance.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because child removal without legal basis is not rare — it is routine, and routinised. Because silence would imply consent, and SWANK does not consent to state overreach disguised as "concern."

Because the image of four children being dragged from their mother without paperwork should haunt every bureaucrat who signs off such conduct.

Because mothers are not meant to narrate their child’s abduction in legal prose. But if we must, it will be with velvet gloves and juridical knives.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 44 (no EPO); Section 46 (no police protection threshold met); Section 20 (no consent)

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (Right to private and family life), Article 6 (Right to fair process)

  • Equality Act 2010 – Failure to consider disability accommodations; discriminatory enforcement

  • PACE 1984 – Entry without warrant; no lawful justification under Part II

  • UNCRC – Article 9 (Separation without judicial scrutiny); Article 3 (Best interests not paramount)


V. SWANK’s Position

This was not safeguarding. It was seizure.
This was not lawful enforcement. It was theatre in uniform.
We do not accept removals with no legal basis.
We do not accept unfiled trauma.
We do not accept five officers and zero signatures.

This incident is now formally archived.
It will be cited. It will be pursued.
And it will never be forgotten.

Chromatic v UCLH: A Child Awaiting Surgery, A System Awaiting Nothing



⟡ “We Haven’t Forgotten About King — We’re Just Not Treating Him.” ⟡
A Holding Pattern in a Paediatric Surgery Queue: Delay Without Escalation, Impact Without Urgency

Filed: 25 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/UCLH/PAEDIATRIC-DELAY
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-25_SWANK_Communication_UCLH_PaediatricSurgeryDelay_King.pdf
A hospital update confirming that paediatric surgery is on hold indefinitely, despite the child’s worsening condition and risk.


I. What Happened

On 4 June 2025, the Surgical Bookings Team at University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust sent an email to Polly Chromatic regarding her son, King. The message confirmed that surgery had not been scheduled. No estimated date. No explanation. Just reassurance that the team "hasn’t forgotten" and that they’re "trying their best."

The email stated the procedure could not go ahead until “further information” was obtained — without specifying what, from whom, or by when. In the meantime, the family was instructed to seek emergency care from a local dentist, despite the fact that specialist intervention was already determined to be necessary.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Indefinite delay in paediatric dental surgery despite clinical need

  • No risk timeline, case priority, or escalation pathway communicated

  • Emotional and physical suffering of a disabled child treated as a matter of scheduling

  • Institutional tone: gentle indifference wrapped in procedural fog

  • Safeguarding concerns obscured beneath medical vagueness

  • Disabled child’s pain and deterioration absorbed into clinical silence


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because delayed treatment is still a form of harm — especially when the subject is a disabled child whose condition was already triaged as surgical. This was not a delay due to emergency surge or national crisis. This was a delay due to institutional inertia.
UCLH did not explain what was missing.
They did not contact the family’s doctor.
They did not escalate the risk.

They simply wrote: we haven’t forgotten about King.
As if memory counts as medicine.
As if delay does not corrode trust, and pain does not accumulate.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Failure to act in the best interests of the child

  • Equality Act 2010 – Indirect discrimination by failing to expedite care for a disabled patient

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Interference with physical integrity and medical access (Article 8)

  • NHS Constitution for England – Right to receive treatment within a reasonable timeframe

  • Safeguarding principles – Failure to mitigate avoidable harm through timely care


V. SWANK’s Position

SWANK does not consider administrative memory an adequate substitute for medical urgency. The clinical team’s refusal to provide a timeline, justification, or pathway to escalation reflects systemic disregard for paediatric patients in pain.

This wasn’t a postponement.
It was a polite medical shrug.
And SWANK documents every shrug.

Polly Chromatic v Westminster: Chronic Asthma Care Disrupted by Emergency Removal Without Medical Transition



⟡ “They Removed Four Children With Asthma. I Told the Court Their Hospital Dates. Silence Is Now State-Endorsed Risk.” ⟡
This Isn’t a Reminder. It’s a Clinical Intervention Filed as Judicial Evidence.

Filed: 24 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/FAMILYCOURT/MEDICAL-ALERT-ASTHMA-NOTICE
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-24_SWANK_Notice_FamilyCourt_AsthmaAppointments_ChildrenRemoved.pdf
Formal notice sent to the Family Division confirming scheduled asthma treatment for four removed U.S. citizen children — and the complete lack of transition planning by Westminster.


I. What Happened

At 05:32 AM on 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic formally notified the Family Division of upcoming respiratory appointments for her four children — KingPrinceHonor, and Regal — all of whom were removed from their home on 23 June under an Emergency Protection Order. The children are all patients under specialist asthma care at Hammersmith Hospital. Appointments are as follows:

  • King – 30 July 2025

  • Prince – 4 August 2025

  • Honor – 11 August 2025

  • Regal – 13 August 2025

The removal occurred without medical continuity, transition coordination, or post-removal communication regarding health care.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Removal occurred with full knowledge of chronic medical needs

  • No transfer of care or continuation plan was provided to the parent

  • The local authority failed to safeguard respiratory stability

  • Missed hospital care may now result in preventable clinical deterioration

  • The Family Court was formally warned — in writing, under disability accommodation protocols

This wasn’t bureaucratic delay. It was institutionally scripted medical neglect.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because asthma is not discretionary.
Because no child should miss specialist hospital care because of institutional silence.
Because failure to plan is not neutrality — it is harm by omission.
Because these appointments were booked long before the removal — and ignored immediately after.
Because when the system deletes your children, we file your calendar.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, Section 1 – Welfare of the child not treated as paramount

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – Disruption of family and medical autonomy

  • UNCRC Article 24 – Right to the highest attainable standard of health

  • NHS Duty of Care – Continuity of treatment breached post-removal

  • Public Law Duty – Failure to safeguard known medical risk factors during emergency intervention


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a procedural oversight. It was a timeline of preventable harm endorsed by silence.
This wasn’t protection. It was pulmonary disruption in the name of bureaucracy.
This wasn’t a delay. It was evidence that time itself is now complicit.

SWANK has logged this notice as a formal alert to the judiciary, the council, and the court of public record.
You may ignore the appointments.
But the children’s lungs won’t.

Failure to Make Reasonable Adjustments: Written Communication Ignored by Westminster Council



⟡ “If You Won’t Read, I’ll Have to Report”: Disability, Silence & Email as Emergency ⟡
A woman tries to communicate her access needs — and is met with neglect, not accommodation.

Filed: 12 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/ADJUST-026
📎 Download PDF – SWANK_DisabilityAccessFailure_WCC_14Dec2024.pdf
Accessibility request email outlining communication barriers, health risks, and legal neglect.


I. What Happened
On 14 December 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a plainspoken yet legally consequential email to Westminster City Council officers Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman. Copied were legal counsel and NHS liaison Philip Reid. The message outlined her disability-related communication needs: speech is limited, writing is essential, and verbal processing depletes her ability to parent.

She proposed a simple workaround — professionals could read her emails and reply briefly in person or by phone when convenient. Instead of support, she received systematic non-response. Solicitors failed to reply. The Council did not acknowledge the request. Silence became strategy.

When ignored, she began reporting safeguarding and harassment issues directly to police — not out of escalation, but because no one would read her emails.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Breach of the Equality Act 2010 (duty to make reasonable adjustments)

  • Failure to acknowledge or action a direct accessibility request

  • Withholding of information through format-policing

  • Gendered dismissal: clarity mistaken for hostility, literacy mistaken for defiance

  • Institutional preference for verbal compliance over written precision

This was not confusion. It was exclusion.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because no disabled person should have to apologise for being legible.
Because “I get sick when I speak” is not emotional — it is physiological, and disregarded.
Because Westminster City Council routinely filters out anything it cannot dominate through tone or pace.
Because accessibility is not a favour — it is a statutory obligation, and they failed it.

SWANK records this to expose bureaucratic fog as a method of control. The format is not the issue. The woman is.


IV. SWANK’s Position
This was a formal access request.
The refusal to read is not ignorance — it is strategy.
SWANK does not accept manufactured incoherence or the pathologising of email as aberration.
We will document every failure to accommodate, every refusal to respond, every professional who treats access as inconvenience.

Silence will be made legible. Every time.

Complete Failure to Action Disability Access Requests: Westminster Officers and Legal Counsel in Systemic Breach



⟡ “I’m Not Emailing You for Fun”: The Systemic Refusal to Accommodate a Literate Disabled Woman ⟡
Westminster officers and lawyers refused to read. A disabled woman’s lawful adjustment request was treated as noise.

Filed: 12 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/ADJUST-026
📎 Download PDF – SWANK_DisabilityAccessFailure_WCC_14-15Dec2024_CompleteSet.pdf
Five consecutive emails requesting written communication as a lawful disability adjustment. All ignored. Only one NHS contact responded.


I. What Happened
Between 14 and 15 December 2024, Polly Chromatic sent five clear, composed emails to safeguarding officers, solicitors, and her NHS liaison. She stated the issue repeatedly: she cannot safely speak for extended periods. Written communication is not a preference — it is a medical and legal necessity.

The emails were not excessive. They were exact. She outlined the solution. She explained her capacity. She documented her decline.

And still — no response.

Council officers said nothing. Blackfords LLP, paid counsel, said nothing. Merali Beedle, whose job was to advise, said nothing.

Only Dr Philip Reid replied. Everyone else performed the modern art of professional disappearance.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Repeated violations of the Equality Act 2010 (reasonable adjustments)

  • Safeguarding negligence: disabled risk disclosures ignored

  • Legal abandonment by counsel of record

  • Gendered silencing of a literate woman via inbox erasure

  • Refusal to accommodate communication despite explicit requests and clear consequences

This was not a missed message. It was a patterned refusal to read.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because the question “Why would I email you for fun?” should shame an entire profession.
Because a disabled woman must not be forced to perform clarity, politeness, and legal awareness in five formats before being acknowledged.
Because Westminster City Council and its legal affiliates do not have a communication problem — they have a control problem.
Because SWANK has seen this before, and will see it again, and will not allow it to disappear quietly.

This was not the absence of advice. It was the suppression of access.


IV. SWANK’s Position
This was a statutory access request.
The silence was operational. The neglect was proceduralised.
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was gatekeeping by omission.
SWANK does not accept the pretence that unread emails cancel obligation.

We document what they refuse to answer.
We publish what they try to drown in silence.
Where professionals vanish into policy, SWANK will stand — fluent, furious, and filed.

We Asked to Reschedule. They Treated It Like Consent.



⟡ “We’re Sick, I Can’t Speak, and You’re Still Coming?” ⟡
“It’s not just harassment if I have to reschedule it myself.”

Filed: 24 September 2024
Reference: SWANK/WCC/EMAILS-06
📎 Download PDF – 2024-09-24_SWANK_EmailRequest_WCC_RescheduleVisit_DisabilityHealthCrisis.pdf
Email requesting the rescheduling of a child protection visit due to active illness and respiratory disability. Westminster proceeded regardless.


I. What Happened

On 24 September 2024, the parent submitted a written request to Westminster Children’s Services asking for a planned visit to be rescheduled due to:

  • An ongoing viral illness affecting the entire household

  • A well-documented respiratory disability impacting the parent's ability to speak

  • The continued arrival of new, unauthorised individuals in the home without consent

The tone was civil. The legal grounds were clear. The request was made in writing.

It was ignored.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Westminster received a lawful request for written communication and visit rescheduling under medical duress

  • That they had already been made aware of the parent’s verbal disability — and proceeded to demand in-person interaction

  • That strangers continued to be sent into the home despite a formal objection

  • That illness, trauma, and relocation were treated as inconveniences — not as grounds for pause

  • That this was not a missed procedural step. It was enforcement by attrition.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when you have to reschedule your own safeguarding visit due to illness, and they show up anyway —
that’s not support. It’s escalation.

Because when you explain that you cannot speak due to a documented medical condition, and they continue showing up unannounced —
that’s not oversight. It’s harassment.

And when you write it all down, politely, and it’s still ignored —
you stop asking for accommodation.
You start filing records.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 20
    Failure to implement reasonable adjustments for a known verbal and respiratory disability

  • Children Act 1989 / 2004
    Procedural refusal to reschedule safeguarding visits during a medical crisis

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8
    Unlawful interference with private and family life during illness

  • Care Act 2014 (Statutory Guidance)
    Failure to respect a disabled parent’s expressed limits in light of documented vulnerability


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t just procedural overreach.
It was targeted persistence.

We didn’t say no.
We said: “We are sick. Please come later.”

You came anyway.

So now we say:
This wasn’t protection. It was refusal to disengage.
And now — it’s evidence.

I. What Happened
Across 14 and 15 December 2024, Polly Chromatic submitted three measured, meticulous emails to Westminster City Council staff, solicitors at Merali Beedle and Blackfords LLP, and NHS contact Dr Philip Reid. In each, she clearly explained that her disability prevents extended verbal speech, and that written communication is not optional — it is vital, medical, and lawful.

She laid out the method: she writes, others may respond briefly by phone or in person if required, but the substance must first be read. Her partner manages this. Her doctors respect it. Only her council and lawyers refused to comply.

There were no replies. No acknowledgements. No attempt to meet the adjustment request.

Dr Reid read and responded. The rest defaulted to what professionals now call “working relationships”: performative presence and strategic absence.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Multiple violations of the Equality Act 2010 (failure to make reasonable adjustments)

  • Systemic communication refusal dressed as professional discretion

  • Safeguarding dereliction via procedural apathy

  • Legal service negligence: solicitors abandoned communication entirely

  • Dismissal-by-silence of written speech when authored by a disabled woman

This was not oversight. It was orchestration.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because accessibility is not optional.
Because refusing to read is a tactic — not a limitation.
Because Westminster staff and their legal representatives would rather disappear the disabled than accommodate them.
Because adjustment requests are being treated as etiquette breaches, not legal claims.
Because this is not one missed email — it is a pattern of vanishing inconvenient formats.

SWANK archives it as evidence of the elite's latest euphemism: non-engagement as neutrality.


IV. SWANK’s Position
This was a legal request. It was ignored.
This was disability law. It was bypassed.
This wasn’t safeguarding. It was sabotage by silence.
SWANK does not accept the fiction that unread emails absolve responsibility. We reject the myth that verbal-only systems are neutral.

We will document every silence, every ghost, every gatekept inbox.
If communication is the battleground, SWANK will be the archive.

Failure to Correct Prescription Dose: NHS and Council Obstruct Access to Life-Saving Treatment



⟡ “The Dose Is Wrong and You Know It”: When Access to Medicine Becomes a Monthly Siege ⟡
A sick woman begs for the correct dose of a life-saving drug. The reply? Silence — and a 50mg shortfall.

Email to NHS and council contacts alerting them to an under-dosed prescription blocking access to biological treatment. No correction was made.


I. What Happened
On 14 December 2024, Polly Chromatic wrote to NHS liaison Dr Philip Reid, with council and legal parties copied, regarding a critical prescription error. Royal Brompton Hospital had confirmed that she required a dose of 250mg in order to proceed with biological treatment — yet the prescription held by the GP stated only 200mg.

This discrepancy, left uncorrected, blocked her access to care.

In that same message, she noted the absurd regularity with which her medications became inaccessible — a ritual humiliation repeated monthly. Despite life-threatening asthma, despite consultant confirmation, despite email upon email — the dose was wrong, and the system shrugged.

There was no apology. No amendment. No clinical urgency. Just inertia, weaponised by familiarity.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Neglect of duty by prescribing bodies and GP liaison

  • Breach of continuity of care standards under NHS Constitution

  • Obstruction of life-saving treatment through administrative indifference

  • Disability-based medical neglect: systemic delay in required asthma care

  • Compounded safeguarding risk via uncorrected prescriptions and unrelieved harassment

This was not a clerical oversight. It was pharmacological negligence, sustained and ignored.


III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because underdosing is not an accident when it recurs with such precision.
Because no one with specialist-confirmed treatment requirements should be forced to beg for the correct numbers on a digital form.
Because a 50mg shortfall becomes lethal when the patient is already struggling to breathe — and has been for decades.
Because institutions now treat medicine the way they treat communication: as something a disabled woman must earn.

SWANK records this not as a symptom, but as a structure. A system in which survival is conditional on obedience — and dosage is a disciplinary mechanism.


IV. SWANK’s Position
This was not just the wrong dose.
This was a denial of access to life-saving treatment, by design or by habitual disdain.
This wasn’t a prescription. It was a procedural snare.
SWANK does not accept healthcare that withholds on a technicality. Nor do we accept silence as dosage.

We document every refusal, every delay, every underdose.
Because until the systems that make women sick are held to account, every 50mg matters.
