“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.

Chromatic v The Concern Industry: On the Fabrication of Risk and the Privilege of Vagueness



๐ŸชžSWANK LOG ENTRY

The Demand for Answers

Or, When You Call Something an Investigation Without Ever Naming the Crime


Filed: 18 October 2024
Reference Code: SWK-MH-SPECULATION-2024-10
PDF Filename: 2024-10-18_SWANK_Letter_MetWestminster_UnlawfulInvestigationAndProfiling.pdf
One-Line Summary: Polly Chromatic demands clarity from the police and Westminster about an “investigation” no one will name and allegations no one can prove.


I. What Happened

On 18 October 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a sharp, plainspoken email to Westminster Children’s Services and the Metropolitan Police regarding an investigation so vague, it seemed allergic to evidence.

She asked two reasonable questions:

  1. What, precisely, is the concern about her mental health?

  2. What, exactly, was the “erratic behaviour” she’s being accused of?

Instead of an answer, she received silence — which is, in SWANK terms, the first sign of bureaucratic guilt.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This message reveals the machinery of pretextual safeguarding:

  • “Mental health” is invoked with no diagnostic basis.

  • “Erratic behaviour” refers to a hospital visit for respiratory distress — i.e., the crime of breathing poorly while disabled.

  • No written concern. No witness. No incident report. Just racialised innuendo wrapped in institutional politeness.

Her final question cuts through it all:

“Why are all the social workers white?”

It is not rhetorical. It is sociological.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because “safeguarding concern” is not a spell, and yet they cast it constantly.
Because “erratic” means nothing when you’re dying of asthma.
Because calling something an investigation doesn’t make it lawful.

This email is not just a refusal — it is a request for forensic accountability.

And when a mother says, “I want answers before I allow an investigation,” what she’s really saying is: your story is incoherent, and I’m not going to play along.


IV. Violations

  • Procedural Impropriety – Conducting interventions with no clear allegation

  • Disability Discrimination – Penalising respiratory distress as behaviour

  • Racial Bias – Unexamined racial homogeneity in safeguarding authority

  • Article 6 ECHR – Right to know the case against you

  • Article 14 ECHR – Discriminatory application of protective powers


V. SWANK’s Position

This email is a jewel of legal lucidity. It captures the absurdity of being watched, investigated, and judged by a body that won’t even say why.

We file this not as a complaint, but as a chronicle of procedural delusion.

Let the record show:
Polly Chromatic asked what the charge was.
And Westminster responded, as usual, with ellipses and forms.

You Didn’t Just Ignore My Asthma. You Rewrote It.



⟡ SWANK Medical Endangerment Archive ⟡

“I Left to Breathe. They Wrote That I Was Removed.”
Filed: 23 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/GSTT/AE-SECURITY-FALSEHOOD-2024
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2025-05-23_SWANK_GSTT_Complaint_AENurse_DisabilityDiscrimination_SecurityFalsehood_2Jan2024.pdf


I. The Asthma Was Real. The Removal Was Not.

This complaint, issued formally to Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, concerns an acute asthma incidenton 2 January 2024 — and the nurse who chose protocol over breath.

You arrived in respiratory crisis.
You requested written-only communication.
You disclosed eosinophilic asthma.
You were met with verbal insistence and refusal.

And when you left — for safety, for oxygen, for survival —

they filed it as a removal.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Your diagnosis (eosinophilic asthma + muscle dysphonia) requires non-verbal interaction during attacks

  • The nurse on duty:

    • Refused written interaction

    • Withheld basic triage adjustments

    • Endangered your respiratory stability

  • Upon your lawful exit from the facility:

    • A formal note was fabricated, claiming removal by security

    • This narrative was used to shield negligence and preempt complaint

  • The complaint demands:

    • Formal correction of the clinical record

    • Disciplinary review

    • Disability training

    • And, if not received, escalation to the CQC, EHRC, and legal review

This was not miscommunication.

It was respiratory negligence rewritten into defiance.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because too often, a disabled woman leaving a building is treated not as a medical act, but an affront to control.

We filed this because:

  • You weren’t “removed.”

  • You weren’t disruptive.

  • You were endangered — and then recharacterised to protect the nurse, not the patient.

Let the record show:

  • You requested adjustment.

  • You were ignored.

  • You left voluntarily.

  • And now, the hospital’s lie is filed, annotated, and archived.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept life-threatening treatment written over with fiction.
We do not accept respiratory needs interpreted as rudeness.
We do not tolerate false claims of removal by institutions desperate to obscure liability.

Let the record show:

The patient left.
The record lied.
The complaint was signed.
And SWANK — has published the correction.

This wasn’t a disruption.
It was self-rescue rebranded as rebellion.

The Asthmatic Archive of Social Work Contagion

“You Will Not Kill Me Politely”
Filed Under: Bureaucratic Epidemiology · Disabled Motherhood · Emotional Biohazards · Institutional Cruelty · Respiratory Disregard · SWANK London Ltd


To the Agents of Inhaled Negligence,
Kirsty Hornal, Sarah Newman, and their entourage of sanitised silence—

I wrote:

“I’m very worried that either me or my kids are going to die from a heart attack or asthma attack…”

Because that is the true fear: not death by illness, but by laminated indifference.
Because Westminster’s model of “safeguarding” is: visit, infect, ignore.
Because I no longer breathe air—I breathe through paperwork.

You refused to listen.
You refused to stay away.
You passed respiratory illness through my home like a cursed offering.
And when I warned that if I die, you will be blamed, that wasn’t emotion.

It was prophecy.

๐Ÿซ Dr. Reid is the only one helping me breathe.
The rest of you? Playing bureaucratic tag with the Grim Reaper, while pretending it’s a “referral.”

I said Sarah should be fired.

I meant it.

This was not a breakdown.
It was a broadcast.

Bullied, Disbelieved, and Accused — The Hospital Horror Loop.



๐Ÿ–‹️ SWANK Dispatch | 14 December 2024
“A&E Feels Like a Courtroom. I Go There to Breathe, Not Defend Myself.”

Filed Under: NHS Hostility · Verbal Disability Discrimination · Respiratory Crisis · Medical Neglect · SWANK Emergency Record


The Email

On 14 December 2024, Polly Chromatic wrote to Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman, with Laura SavagePhilip Reid, and Simon O’Meara copied:

“I’m very ill and afraid to go to A&E just to be bullied and not believed.”
“Every time it’s almost too much trouble to bother because it’s so much effort to even get there when I can’t breathe.”
“Then they want to argue about it and they make me even sicker, and on top of that they accuse me of crimes because they are so hostile and don’t believe me.”

“The bottom line is that no one cares, so it’s best if everyone just leaves us alone and we will deal with it as best we can.”

“I greatly appreciate Dr Reid for his help. No one has ever helped us like he has.”

This is not avoidance. It is self-preservation.
Every emergency visit becomes a trial by disbelief, with breathing framed as evidence and silence framed as guilt.


A Final Plea

Please Note: I suffer from a disability which makes speaking verbally difficult. I prefer to communicate telepathically to minimise respiratory strain; however, email is fine.

Two Weeks of Silence from Simon, and a Mother's Frustration Reaches Its Limit.



๐Ÿ–‹ SWANK Dispatch | 6 February 2025
“Emails Unread, Voice Unheard—And the Panic Deepens”

๐Ÿ“ฉ The Emails No One Read

“I’ve been emailing Simon for help for two weeks—he reads none of my emails.”
“Talking makes me sick. I repeatedly ask via email for support, but my requests go ignored.”
“Even Laura’s rescheduling emails were ignored. I’m left giving up on communication.”

When your voice causes illness and your emails are binned, what’s left?

Answer: Panic. Silence. Worsening health.
Ignored correspondence is not a delay—it is denial masked in Outlook formatting.


๐Ÿง  A Frustrated Mind in a Collapsing System

“This has been my burden alone for 45 years.”
“My asthma is uniquely severe. Untreated for six months. Each ignored message becomes a symptom.”
“Dr Reid understands. He is the only one.”
“I can only talk briefly. Email is the only safe and reasonable form.”

This is not miscommunication.
This is institutional disinterest.
This is harm-by-silence.

Emergency Room, Party Balloons, and Nine Police Outside My Hotel Door

 ๐Ÿ“Ž SWANK Dispatch: The Birthday That Triggered the State

๐Ÿ—“️ 4 January 2024

Filed Under: police escalation, ER racial harassment, NHS negligence, safeguarding misuse, COVID mistreatment, maternal disability, social work retaliation, St Thomas misconduct, birthday sabotage


On 2 January 2024, Polly Chromatic took her daughter Heir to St Thomas’ Hospital because she was experiencing acute respiratory distress, weight loss, dizziness, and an inability to sit upright.

The ER staff subjected her to:
– dismissive comments about her diagnosis
– delayed care
– aggressive questioning about her children while she was visibly ill
– removal from care because her daughter was present
– and the release of false accusations of racism that triggered police involvement

By 4amnine officers had surrounded her hotel room at the Holiday Inn W8, disrupting her family on the eve of her son Prerogative’s birthday.

And yet:
– Polly had documented her symptoms
– Had already planned a trip to hospital
– Had video evidence of her conduct
– And was diagnosed with COVID and asthma exacerbation at Chelsea & Westminster the next day


๐Ÿงพ SWANK Commentary

When the cost of asking for medical help is:

— racial slander
— false safeguarding
— nine police officers
— trauma to four children
— and the cancellation of a birthday

You are not being helped.
You are being punished
for being visibly unwell
and maternally competent
at the same time.



When They Say “Erratic,” They Mean “She Wrote It Down”: How Documented Disability Became a Trigger for Retaliation



⟡ “I’m Going to Sue Them. It’s Child Neglect.” ⟡
*A Verbal Disability Reassertion, a Safeguarding Rebuttal, and a Legal Intent Statement in One Email They Still Probably Didn’t Read

Filed: 24 November 2024
Reference: SWANK/NHS/EMAIL-07
๐Ÿ“Ž Download PDF – 2024-11-24_SWANK_Email_Westminster_HospitalBullying_SafeguardingRebuttal_ChildNeglectNotice.pdf
Email rejecting accusations of erratic behaviour, confirming verbal disability, and naming hospitals for repeated medical refusal and bullying. Ends with a statement of legal intent.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic responded to institutional gaslighting with an email that did exactly what hospitals, social workers, and mental health professionals refuse to do: it told the truth plainly.

  • She refuted the term “erratic” used to justify safeguarding

  • She clarified that she doesn’t argue — she documents

  • She named St Mary’s and St Thomas’ for bullying behaviour that worsened her asthma

  • She confirmed her children were treated even more dismissively than she was

  • She closed with:

“I’m going to sue them. It’s child neglect.”


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The use of “erratic” as a retaliatory label for written medical requests

  • A pattern of bullying and disbelief at A&E

  • Exclusion of asthmatic children from care

  • Verbal disability as a structural barrier — not a behavioural trait

  • A calm legal threat: documentation over confrontation


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is what a safeguarding reversal looks like.

This email is a declaration of war — not in tone, but in recordkeeping. It doesn’t ask for explanation. It declares the gap: no one can name the “erratic” behaviour because there wasn’t any.

SWANK logs this because disabled people are framed as unstable when they ask to be treated.
And when they refuse to argue, they are punished with silence.


IV. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t erratic.
It was strategy.

We do not accept that saying “I want to be treated” is disruptive.
We do not accept that bullying must be endured silently to maintain credibility.
We will document every moment the system accused someone of being dangerous — because she used a keyboard instead of a scream.

Breathless Is Not Unreasonable: How NHS Staff Abuse Disabled Families, Then Call Them Difficult



⟡ “I Don’t Fight Like a Wild Animal. I Email Until You Lose Your Job.” ⟡
Medical Neglect, Hospital Misconduct, and the Anatomy of Verbal Retaliation When You Can’t Breathe

Filed: 23 November 2024
Reference: SWANK/NHS/EMAIL-03

Email documenting abusive NHS conduct toward disabled parent and children, failed A&E procedures, and verbal disability assertion — with a formal threat to escalate publicly and legally.


I. What Happened

On 23 November 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a structured, blistering email to GP Philip Reid and a group of social services and legal recipients. It contained:

  • Dosage and health updates for multiple children (prednisone use)

  • Observations about neglectful NHS staff who mishandled intake tests

  • First-hand documentation of emotional and physical abuse in A&E settings

  • A written refusal to continue tolerating hospital-based maltreatment

When King’s lungs were visibly struggling, the staff told him to “breathe with his mouth closed,” and took his temperature by placing the device beside — not in — his ear.

And when Polly complained, they accused her of racism.

This was not a meltdown. It was a case file.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Repeated NHS neglect of a disabled parent and her children

  • Mistreatment framed as clinical policy, not bias

  • Weaponised accusations (racism, non-compliance) used to deflect accountability

  • Disability dismissal: severe asthma and verbal impairment treated as irritants

  • Verbal retaliation criminalised, while institutional abuse remained protected


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because what gets called an “angry email” is often a legal archive in its purest form.

This message is strategic, evidentiary, and fully aware of the consequences. It does not plead — it indicts. Every sentence is an affidavit in disguise. Every word is a rebuttal to the fantasy that “reasonable” patients get treated fairly.

SWANK logged it because no parent should have to diagnose their own child while defending their legal right not to suffocate in silence.


IV. SWANK’s Position

This was not aggression.
It was survival, forwarded.

We do not accept that hospitals can fail four children and then ask for politeness.
We do not accept that accusations of racism erase acts of clinical cruelty.
We will document every time a parent was forced to write their own discharge summary because the state refused to care.
