One-Line Summary: Polly Chromatic explains that communication requires response — and Westminster’s silence is not neutrality, but negligence.
I. What Happened
On 31 October 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a philosophical — and legally poignant — letter to Westminster Children’s Services and their institutional entourage. The subject? Communication.
The message?
“Communication is an interaction between two humans. If no one responds then it’s just a monologue.”
The Crown, as usual, had nothing to say in return — a tradition SWANK has come to expect and now documents as ritualised incompetence.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
This email is not a grievance. It is an anthropology of British safeguarding misbehaviour:
Polly has clearly stated disability accommodations (email communication due to respiratory disability).
Her messages go unacknowledged, week after week, month after month.
No one engages, replies, discusses, or reflects.
And yet, the system proceeds as if dialogue occurred — as if “being emailed” and “being heard” are synonyms.
She writes:
“It’s very frustrating that I seem to be unable to communicate effectively with any of you via email, which is the accommodation for my disability.”
That is not a communication breakdown. That is procedural ableism.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because when institutions ignore the emails of a disabled mother, they are not just ghosting — they are violating Article 14 of the ECHR.
Because when a parent articulates their philosophy of love over fear, and professionals respond with silence, they are revealing the cultural supremacism at the heart of British child protection.
Because only in the UK could a parent write, “My culture should be respected,” and the State respond with a Section 47 enquiry.
This email isn’t a plea for engagement — it’s a final audit of professional abandonment.
IV. Violations
Equality Act 2010 – Failure to provide and honour disability accommodations
Article 8 ECHR – Interference without communication
Article 14 ECHR – Discriminatory disregard for cultural and personal communication needs
Institutional Misrepresentation – Proceeding with interventions while ignoring all parent input
Safeguarding Hostility – Mistaking silence for authority and projection for evidence
V. SWANK’s Position
We consider this email a landmark submission in the SWANK catalogue of ignored genius.
This was not a rant. It was a cultural briefing. A diplomatic communique. A mother explaining — calmly, eloquently, and correctly — that what Westminster calls “non-engagement” is actually institutional refusal to meet her where she legally and ethically lives.
Let the record show:
Polly Chromatic spoke.
The system did not respond.
And then it accused her of silence.
