“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.

SWANK v Westminster: Kirsty Hornal Issues Preemptive Supervision Threat Weeks Before Legal Action Taken



⟡ “We Are Considering Applying for a Supervision Order.” They Wrote This Before Any Hearing — and Copied Their Silence to Each Other. ⟡
This Wasn’t Safeguarding. It Was PLO Theatre in Draft — Sent Before the Archive Had Filed Its First Velvet Entry.

Internal email from Kirsty Hornal (cc Sam Brown) stating intent to apply for a supervision order concerning RegalPrerogativeKingdom, and Heir, weeks before any lawful court removal occurred.


I. What Happened

At 12:01 on 29 May 2025, social worker Kirsty Hornal emailed Polly Chromatic with a pre-emptive threat:
“We are considering applying for a supervision order in relation to all four children.”

She made this declaration:

  • Before any hearing was convened

  • Before any EPO or ICO was filed

  • Without service, representation, or disclosure

  • Without any reasonable adjustments for disability access

  • Without factual legal justification

The email named RegalPrerogativeKingdom, and Heir individually. It did not cite risk, but rather declared intent to escalate procedurally — in writing, from a position of unchecked institutional authority.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • A supervision order was discussed and threatened in writing before court involvement

  • There was no prior process, application, or safeguarding threshold recorded

  • The tone and format were coercive, vague, and anticipatory, not protective

  • The children’s names were listed without cause, suggesting profiling over risk

  • The archive now holds the timestamp of intentional escalation without grounds

This wasn’t safeguarding. It was pre-litigation conditioning written in public sector font.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because threats written by state officers are not informal — they are jurisdictional tells.
Because when the threat comes before the reason, the reason becomes retroactive fiction.
Because the removal occurred three weeks later — and this email is how the script began.
Because documenting intent is what the archive was built for.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, Section 31 – No lawful threshold for supervision application stated

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – No reasonable adjustments for written-only communication

  • UNCRC Article 3 – Children’s best interests not established or examined

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – Family interference without cause

  • GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018 – Improper listing and profiling of named minors

  • Professional Conduct Codes (Social Work England) – Coercion, misuse of authority, preemptive litigation threat


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t oversight. It was a procedural strike disguised as future planning.
This wasn’t a warning. It was a tactic — executed by subject line and cc’d to complicity.
This wasn’t necessary. It was predictive control dressed in the language of care.

SWANK hereby logs this threat email as the origin point of retaliatory escalation, archived under sovereign resistance and aesthetic recordkeeping.
They said they were “considering.”
We say they were plotting.
And now the timestamp speaks for itself.

The Council Sent a Threat. The Police Received the Evidence.

“The Email Was Retaliatory. The Statement Was Submitted. The Evidence Is Now a Police Record.”

I. When Email Escalates Into Evidence

This document records the formal submission to the Metropolitan Police of a supplemental harassment statement concerning Kirsty Hornal, safeguarding officer for Westminster City Council.

Included:

  • A witness statement documenting her coercive and retaliatory communication

  • The original email, attached in full

  • A reiterated disability adjustment limiting contact to written-only formats

  • A direct request that the case record be updated, logged, and retained

This wasn’t a follow-up.
It was a procedural conversion — from misconduct to misconduct report, from council oversight to state scrutiny.


II. What the Submission Establishes

  • That the safeguarding email was sent with:

    • Knowledge of a medical communication adjustment

    • No safeguarding trigger or threshold cited

    • Language alluding to court escalation without cause

  • That the parent responded:

    • In writing, with evidence

    • Within lawful boundaries

    • Through the correct policing channel — not just complaint, but submission

Let the record show:
The email was inappropriate.
The response was lawful.
And now — it’s logged in a jurisdiction the Council can’t redact.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because councils may dismiss complaints — but police records aren’t so easily ignored.
Because disability boundaries breached by state actors must be tracked in both civil and criminal systems.
Because safeguarding power must not be used as a threat, and when it is — the email becomes a PDF with consequences.

We filed this because:

  • Kirsty Hornal used institutional email to pressure a disabled parent

  • The act violated law, policy, and decency

  • And the parent didn’t flinch — she submitted it to the police

Let the record show:

The words were logged.
The harms were named.
The archive is live.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept threats masked as safeguarding.
We do not accept breaches of disability law as mere communication choices.
We do not accept silence when state actors act unlawfully.

Let the record show:

The case was updated.
The officer was named.
And SWANK — gave the evidence structure, jurisdiction, and a file path.

This wasn’t an escalation.
It was the legal system being politely informed that the evidence has arrived.



When “Safeguarding” Arrives as a Threat

I. From Professional Disagreement to Police Record

This supplemental witness statement was submitted to the Metropolitan Police following a retaliatory and coercive email sent by Kirsty Hornal, acting in her capacity as a safeguarding officer for Westminster Children’s Services.

At issue:

  • A communication sent in knowing violation of a formal written-only disability adjustment

  • A deliberate reference to a supervision order application with no legal threshold met

  • A strategic tone: not protective, but intimidating — designed to exert control

This wasn’t support.
It was a power play, sent in writing —
and now, formally recorded as harassment.


II. What the Statement Establishes

  • That the parent had:

    • A documented diagnosis of PTSD, muscle dysphonia, and Eosinophilic Asthma

    • A clearly communicated communication adjustment

    • Prior safeguarding complaints already filed

  • That the officer:

    • Ignored those adjustments

    • Sent an escalation threat via email

    • Operated outside protocol, outside process, and inside power

This isn’t “child welfare.”
It’s a civilian being pressured by government email — during a known medical vulnerability.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because disability adjustments are not optional.
Because safeguarding threats issued without legal basis are institutional coercion.
Because when the state weaponises email tone — we weaponise clarity.

We filed this because:

  • This wasn’t a safeguarding notice — it was a warning dressed as a “check-in”

  • This wasn’t a misunderstanding — it was deliberate intrusion into a controlled boundary

  • The person in power had options — and chose the one with legal exposure

Let the record show:

The email was received.
The adjustment was ignored.
The officer was named.
And the report — went to the police.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept professional roles as shields for misconduct.
We do not accept threats buried in pleasantries.
We do not accept that a safeguarding officer may breach medical law because of discomfort with dissent.

Let the record show:

The report was filed.
The statement was signed.
The archive is permanent.

This wasn’t an overreaction.
It was the minimum required response to digital coercion.
