“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.

When Safeguarding Becomes Retaliation, We File Across Borders.


⟡ Formal Notification: The United States Has Been Informed ⟡
If the British state won’t protect its own residents, it may wish to explain itself to Washington.

Filed: 20 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/USA/EMBASSY-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-19_SWANK_Letter_USAEmbassy_RetaliationSupportRequest.pdf
A formal transmission to the U.S. Embassy in London requesting federal review of retaliatory safeguarding misuse, disability discrimination, and procedural harm against five American citizens residing in the United Kingdom.

I. What Happened

A disabled American mother published an evidentiary archive.
The British state responded not with transparency — but with surveillance, intrusion, and coercion.
They violated her medical rights.
They attempted to destabilise her home education provision.
They targeted her children — four medically disabled U.S. nationals — with safeguarding theatre designed to punish lawful documentation.
So she filed it. Not to a borough complaints inbox. To the Embassy.

II. What the Letter Establishes

  • That a U.S. citizen was subjected to sustained harassment by UK authorities for publishing lawful evidence

  • That four disabled American children were targeted as leverage to suppress a parent’s testimony

  • That safeguarding frameworks were weaponised as a tool of institutional retaliation

  • That disability rights — medical, educational, and procedural — were denied across multiple agencies

  • That these events constitute a transnational breach of civil protections

  • That the United States government is now on record — and on notice

III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because one cannot rely on British authorities to investigate British misconduct.
Because the agencies named in the archive have escalated instead of answering.
Because retaliation is not “policy.”
Because safeguarding, when falsified, becomes persecution.
Because this is no longer a local matter. It is a cross-border indictment of bureaucratic impunity.

IV. Violations Identified

  • Retaliation for Lawful Expression

  • Disability Discrimination (Targeting Both Parent and Children)

  • Procedural Misuse of Safeguarding Powers

  • Cross-Border Breach of Civil and Parental Rights

V. SWANK’s Position

This marks the formal jurisdictional handover.
The silence of Westminster has now been replaced by the timestamped evidence of federal escalation.
If further retaliation occurs, it will not be read as oversight — it will be read as escalation in full knowledge of international attention.
This is not a cry for help.
This is a legal record.
And it has already crossed the Atlantic.

Email Threat of Supervision Order from Westminster Children’s Services – 29 May 2025


✒️ Dispatch No. 2025-05-29-WCC-Supervision-Threat

Filed Under: Retaliation by Email, Misuse of Procedure, Digital Coercion Series

Re: Ms Kirsty Hornal, Westminster Children’s Services
Subject Line: “Letter of Intent to Initiate Proceedings”
Date & Time of Offence: 29 May 2025, 11:14 BST

🎭 Threat Theatre, Act I: “Support and Assessment”

At precisely 11:14 on the morning of 29 May 2025, Ms Kirsty Hornal — Senior Practitioner at Westminster Children’s Services and repeat feature in our anthology of institutional misconduct — took it upon herself to author an electronic ultimatum, cunningly disguised as cooperative liaison.

Under the genteel veneer of “support and assessment,” Ms Hornal announced the Council’s alleged intention to pursue a Supervision Order over four named children: Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir — an invocation so absurdly theatrical it could only be sincere in its threat.

The pretext? A letter “outlining concerns.”
The timing? Remarkably aligned with SWANK’s legal proceedings.
The delivery? Pastel and polite, but seething with bureaucratic menace.

🩺 Disability? What Disability.

A Written Communication Policy is, and has long been, in place.
It is formal, enforceable, and medically mandated.
Its terms? No unsolicited contact, no verbal engagements, no encrypted ambushes.
Its breach? A statutory violation.

Ms Hornal was well aware of this.
She emailed regardless.

What Westminster refers to as safeguarding now appears indistinguishable from systematic disregard for disabled protections.

📚 Interpretive Notes for the Archive – The Anatomy of a Threat

  • The letter’s declaration of legal intent is procedurally anomalous, devoid of risk foundation, and unaccompanied by lawful process.

  • The gratuitous naming of children — absent threshold or tribunal — functions as emotional leverage, not protection.

  • The phrase “we will be seeking a supervision order” is delivered without basis, evidence, or necessity.

This is not safeguarding.
This is email as intimidation.
This is casework as vendetta, cloaked in the sanitised dialect of child protection bureaucracy.

Let the record show: safeguarding has become the state’s soft weapon, and email, its preferred projectile.

A Refund Request and a Bureaucratic IQ Test


🖋 SWANK Dispatch | 10 December 2024
“There Will Be No Assessment. Only Incompetence.”

Filed Under: Disability Disregard · Medical Incompetence · Verbal Chauvinism · Refunds & Resistance · Procedural Stupidity · SWANK London Ltd

Dear Kirsty,

“There will be no assessment because no one is smart enough to provide adjustments so I can communicate.”

Precisely.

When the bar for reasonable adjustment is “allow her to write,”
and the institution still fails—

we are not in the realm of psychiatry.
We are in the kingdom of bureaucratic Dunning-Kruger.

I asked for a refund because the receptionist refused to send the doctor the documents required to complete the psychiatric report.

This, after I was told email was permitted.
This, despite a respiratory disease and legal rights.
This, after years of being punished for not speaking—even though speaking could kill me.

And now social workers want to conduct assessments
in a system that doesn't even understand email?

No.

There will be no assessment.
There will be a paper trail.

When Accessibility Meets Resistance: A Tale of Tech, Tone, and Tenacity


🖋️ SWANK Dispatch | 14 December 2024
“Apple Refused to Accommodate My Disability—Then Threatened Me”

Filed From: Flat 22, 2 Periwinkle Gardens, London W2
Author: Polly Chromatic
Filed Under: Disability Accommodation Failure · Customer Harassment · Verbal Adjustment Denied · Racial Misconduct · SWANK Incident Report

The Incident at Apple Covent Garden

While seeking support for my iPad at the Apple Genius Bar, I encountered verbal hostility and adjustment refusal, in direct violation of disability law.

Despite calmly requesting pen-and-paper communication due to my verbal disability and respiratory strain, the Black male staff member ignored the request and escalated the situation—threatening to call security after I raised my voice to be understood.

I clearly stated:

“This is racial bias. You are accusing me because of how I sound, not what I’ve done.”

Manager Intervened, But Harassment Continued

Though a manager briefly assisted, a second employee—also of Black ethnicity—then intervened aggressively, verbally harassing me further and threatening to misreport the incident internally.

Again, my medical communication request was ignored.

This was not a misunderstanding.
It was systemic: a commercial institution refusing written communication and punishing disability with suspicion.

Statement of Disability

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.

You Don’t Have to Believe Me. You Just Have to Treat Me.


🖋 SWANK Dispatch | 24 November 2024
I’M NOT AVOIDING THERAPY. YOU’RE AVOIDING ACCESS.
Also titled: “When Silence Is the Only Accommodation You Won’t Offer.”

Filed From: Flat 22, 2 Periwinkle Gardens, London W2
Author: Polly Chromatic
Filed Under: Therapy Denial · Access Sabotage · Disability Discrimination · Community Exclusion · Verbal Adjustment Refusal · SWANK Procedural Harm Index

To: Kirsty Hornal
Cc: Dr Philip Reid, Gideon Mpalanyi, Laura Savage, Simon O’Meara

🩺 THE STATEMENT THEY RECEIVED—AND STILL REFUSED TO UNDERSTAND:

“I’d love to go to therapy but no one will provide adjustments for my disability needs...”
“It is not our problem. It is your community’s problem.”
“You keep expecting us to behave like people who don’t have a disability—and we can’t.”
“Someone needs to call the mental health practice and explain that I can’t explain everything verbally.”

You didn’t misunderstand.
You simply didn’t care to translate accommodation into action.

🧠 FOR THOSE ALLERGIC TO DIGNITY, HERE’S A TRANSLATION:

I asked for therapy.
You offered a trapdoor lined with expectations.

I required written communication.
You insisted on performance.

I named the exclusion.
You punished the diagnosis.

This is not “non-engagement.”
It’s exclusion, dressed up in procedural couture.

📎 ACCESS STATEMENT (IGNORED, AS EVER):

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

Your refusal is now formal.
Your evasion is now archived.

They Had Jurisdiction. They Chose Evasion.


⟡ SWANK Jurisdictional Audit Archive – RBKC & Westminster ⟡
“They Received a Statutory Complaint. They Replied With a Threshold.”
Filed: 20 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/RBKC-WCC/SECTION5-COMPLAINT-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-05-20_SWANK_RBKC_WCC_Section5_StatutoryComplaint_SafeguardingMisuse_JurisdictionalRefusal.pdf
Author: Polly Chromatic

I. A Complaint Was Filed Under Statute. They Declined to Investigate.

This document records a formal Section 5 statutory complaint under the Local Government and Housing Act 1989, filed against both RBKC and Westminster Children’s Services for:

  • Misuse of safeguarding as a tool of institutional retaliation

  • Disability adjustment breaches despite medical evidence and legal notification

  • Unlawful process escalation without harm threshold

  • Procedural harassment masked as professional concern

  • Neglect of lawful communication boundaries

The named actors include Kirsty Hornal, Glen Peache, Edward Kendall, Rhiannon Hodgson, and supervising leadership across boroughs.

The complaint was submitted to both Monitoring Officers:

  • LeVerne Parker (RBKC)

  • Legal Services (Westminster)

II. What the Response Confirms

RBKC replied formally — not with denial, but with disqualification.

Their position:

  • The complaint, though received, was not accepted for formal review

  • The events described did not reach their internal threshold for maladministration

  • The named misconduct was described as outside of Section 5 jurisdiction, despite originating inside the council’s statutory operations

This wasn’t a refusal to acknowledge.
It was an evasive reclassification of liability.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when statutory harm is alleged and a Monitoring Officer responds by rejecting jurisdiction, that is not legal clarity — it is procedural erasure.
Because safeguarding is not outside policy when weaponised by employees of the state.
Because “we will not be investigating this” is not a neutral reply — it is a political one.

We filed this because:

  • The complaint was grounded in law

  • The refusal was grounded in internal thresholds

  • The misconduct was clear

  • And the legal duty — was evaded

Let the record show:

The statutes were cited.
The misconduct was named.
The thresholds were irrelevant.
And the refusal — was archived.

IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept councils redefining harm to avoid recordable responsibility.
We do not accept safeguarding escalation as immune from review.
We do not accept that a refusal to investigate is the same as innocence.

Let the record show:

The statute was activated.
The officer was notified.
The silence was formalised.
And SWANK — has indexed the dodge.

This wasn’t a rejection.
It was a policy performance of denial, caught in PDF.
