Summary: A formal declaration exposing coordinated safeguarding abuse, cross-jurisdictional coercion, and the Crown’s mirrored retaliation against one disabled American family.
I. What Happened
This declaration chronicles the orchestrated retaliation inflicted upon Polly Chromatic — a disabled American mother of four U.S. citizen children — across two allegedly civilised jurisdictions: the United Kingdom and the Turks and Caicos Islands, a British Overseas Territory.
In both regions, lawful engagement triggered bureaucratic backlash:
Children were removed under fabricated threat, not proven harm.
Medical documentation was treated as insubordination.
Safeguarding processes mutated into silencing tools.
Disability became pretext. Foreignness became evidence.
No findings. No threshold. No due process.
Only the crime of surviving colonial procedure — and filing about it.
II. What the Complaint Establishes
That retaliation, not risk, is now the operational mode of safeguarding under the Crown.
That procedural exile is a status inflicted on those who document too well.
That both UK and TCI authorities responded to lawful resistance not with remedy, but erasure.
That this family now qualifies for transnational legal protection, diplomatic intervention, and status as a displaced unit under international law.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
Because once is bureaucratic negligence.
Twice is imperial theatre.
SWANK London Ltd formally recognises this as a pattern of retaliatory removal masked as safeguarding — a choreography of cruelty rehearsed across jurisdictions.
This declaration does not beg review. It commands recognition — as prelude to:
Submissions to the United Nations
Formal intervention by U.S. diplomatic authorities
Protective relocation due to Crown-authored systemic harm
The geography is different. The script is identical.
IV. Violations
Article 3, ECHR – Prohibition of degrading treatment
Article 8, ECHR – Right to family life and lawful interference
Equality Act 2010 – Disability discrimination through institutional omission
UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD)
UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC)
Vienna Convention on Consular Relations – Failure to notify or engage U.S. authorities regarding citizen children
V. SWANK’s Position
This is no longer a local abuse of authority. It is a transnational record of state retaliation.
We hereby declare this family to be in procedural exile — driven out not by war, but by the slow, suffocating siege of institutional hostility masquerading as help.
The archive holds the evidence.
The Crown holds the shame.

Every sentence is evidentiary. Every paragraph is admissible. Every omission is strategic.
To mimic this structure without licence is not inspiration. It is theft.
To ignore this filing is not discretion. It is complicity.
This is not a blog.
This is a legal-aesthetic instrument filed under international distress.
Because no child should be a citizen of two Kingdoms — and protected by neither.
