“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.

The Thirteenth Day of Silence — A Lesson in Bureaucratic Contempt

 📭 SWANK Dispatch: Still Waiting for the Letter That Was Promised a Week Ago

🗓️ 3 August 2020

Filed Under: broken promises, social work negligence, ignored timelines, communication failure, administrative delay, institutional disrespect, unfulfilled duties, child welfare hypocrisy


“A week, you said. It’s been thirteen days.”
— A Mother Counting Silence as Evidence

Dearest Viewer of Dysfunctional Timelines,

On 20 July 2020Ashley Adams-Forbes, Deputy Director of the Department of Social Development, wrote the following words to Noelle Bonneannée:

“Please give me a week to provide you with an official letter.”

Noelle, as ever, was generous in patience — but today, on 3 August 2020, she followed up. Not with anger. With precision.


📅 I. What Was Promised

A letter.
An official response.
Reports regarding her children’s ongoing cases.
A formal engagement with a detailed timeline she herself had compiled — graciously, professionally.


📭 II. What Was Delivered

Nothing.
Thirteen days of silence.
Thirteen days in which Ashley Adams-Forbes simply did not honour her own commitment.

And this from an office allegedly devoted to the well-being of children.


📌 III. What the Silence Says

When a government department asks for a week and delivers nothing in thirteen days, it is not a delay.
It is a message.

And the message is this:
We do not take your concerns seriously.
We do not believe we are accountable to you.
We do not care that you are still waiting.


🖋️ Final Note from Noelle:

“I want my concerns to be taken seriously; however, my concerns seem to be continuously ignored.”

SWANK has taken note.
The archive remembers what they hoped to forget.



She Was Discharged. I Collapsed. You Said Nothing.



⟡ She Got the Medication. I Lost My Breath. You Logged Neither. ⟡
“I sent you the treatment notes. I was the one who stopped breathing.”

Final update sent to Westminster Children’s Services confirming Honor’s hospital discharge plan and reporting parental collapse following the visit — untreated, unacknowledged, and ignored.


I. What Happened

On the evening of 21 November 2024, after securing Heir’s emergency care, the parent:

  • Sent a summary of discharge notes, including medication names and doses

  • Reiterated that Heir was now on prescribed antibiotics following respiratory crisis

  • Confirmed that the parent herself had collapsed shortly after returning home, due to respiratory exhaustion and stress

  • Stated clearly that the family had complied with all medical instructions

  • Received no meaningful response — only escalating safeguarding suspicion

This email was not a request.
It was a declaration of reality — one that Westminster refused to acknowledge.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Heir’s condition had been formally addressed by medical professionals

  • That parental illness and medical collapse were clearly reported in writing

  • That social services provided no check-in, no support, and no procedural response

  • That this silence was not oversight — it was policy

  • That survival was treated as defiance


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when you’ve completed the treatment,
documented every dose,
and reported your collapse —
and they still escalate against you —
that’s not risk management.
That’s targeted neglect.

Because they want the appearance of concern,
not the burden of accountability.

And because this time, it wasn’t just your daughter who needed medical attention —
it was you.
And they looked the other way.

So now we’ve looked back —
and filed it.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 / 2004
    Refusal to acknowledge or support a carer after crisis response

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 20
    Written-only adjustment ignored even during acute respiratory illness

  • Care Act 2014 – Carer Recognition Duty
    No action taken after collapse was formally reported

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 3 and 8
    Degrading treatment through institutional silence


V. SWANK’s Position

We didn’t need intervention.
We needed oxygen.

We didn’t refuse support.
We just didn’t beg for it.

This wasn’t neglect on our part.
It was silence on yours.

And now, that silence is documented —
and timestamped.
