SWANK v Westminster: In Re The Vanishing of a 16-Year-Old Citizen

“He’s 16. He’s American. He’s Still Missing.”

A Diplomatic and Legal Alert on the Seizure of Regal — A U.S. Citizen Minor With Legal Autonomy and No Advocate

Filed Date: 24 June 2025

Reference Code: SWANK/USAEMBASSY/0624-REGAL-RIGHTS-VIOLATION
Court Filename: 2025-06-24_EmergencyAlert_USChildrenRemoval_RightsViolationNotice
One-line Summary: Formal diplomatic notice filed concerning the unlawful removal and secret detainment of 16-year-old Regal, a U.S. citizen with medical needs and legal autonomy.

I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Regal—16 years old, asthmatic, a U.S. passport holder, and eldest of four siblings—was forcibly removed from his home by Westminster Children’s Services without:

A court hearing
A warrant
Medical accommodation
Legal representation
Communication with family or the Embassy

At 16, Regal is legally entitled under UK law to significant self-determination and advocacy protections. He was given neither. He has not been seen nor heard from since.

This formal statement was submitted to the U.S. Embassy at 1:35 AM on 24 June 2025, constituting a rights-based emergency alert under consular and disability law.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

That Regal’s age and U.S. citizenship were ignored at removal, despite their legal and diplomatic weight.
That he was denied a legal advocate or any avenue to assert his autonomy, even though UK law distinguishes 16-year-olds from younger minors.
That no safeguarding rationale was disclosed to justify the absence of parental or consular presence.
That the removal occurred during an active civil claim, judicial review, and diplomatic monitoring effort.
That Romeo is now effectively a stateless detainee of local government policy.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because Regal’s disappearance is not metaphorical—it is literal, medical, and judicial.

Because removing a U.S. citizen child with legal autonomy from a disabled parent without communication, court scrutiny, or diplomatic protocol is not safeguarding—it is a violation of everything safeguarding pretends to be.

Because this is not only unlawful under UK family law—it is a consular incident.

And because if the state can vanish a 16-year-old citizen under the banner of protection, then SWANK will not only file it—it will publish it in capital letters.

IV. Violations

Vienna Convention on Consular Relations – Article 36 (rights of nationals abroad)
Children Act 1989 – Section 20 and 44 procedural requirements
Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (family life), Article 6 (due process)
Equality Act 2010 – Failure to accommodate parental disability
UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – Articles 3, 9, 12
UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities – Article 23 (family integrity)

V. SWANK’s Position

Regal is 16 years old.
He is American.
He is asthmatic.
He has been removed without representation, documentation, or justification.
He is—by all legal and ethical definitions—unlawfully held.

SWANK London Ltd. hereby notifies the public and all relevant institutions:
This is not a placement. This is a disappearance.

Chromatic v Westminster: In Re The Hearing That Wasn’t Served

The Care Order With No Transcript, No Notice, and No Shame

Procedural History of a Legal Ambush Carried Out in Velvet Silence

Filed Date: 24 June 2025

Reference Code: SWANK/FAMCOURT/0624-PROCEDURAL-HISTORY
Court Filename: 2025-06-24_SWANK_ProceduralHistory_CareOrderChallenge
One-line Summary: Formal timeline documenting the unlawful removal of four U.S. citizen children and the legal void left behind.

I. What Happened

This procedural history is not merely a sequence of dates—it is a forensic catalogue of judicial evasion. On 23 June 2025, four U.S. citizen children were removed without notice, court order disclosure, or even a whiff of procedural legitimacy.

The applicant, Polly Chromatic, was informed—after the fact—that a care order had been granted in a hearing she was neither invited to nor notified of. There is no transcript. There is no judgment. There is only silence, seizure, and post-hoc justification.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

That on 23 June 2025, the state physically removed four American minors from their mother without providing any documentation, destination, or procedural grounds.
That on 24 June 2025, the applicant filed six separate legal and regulatory actions in response—none of which have been adequately answered.
That this timeline exposes a complete administrative failure to meet even the lowest standards of justice: presence, notice, and disclosure.
That the entire removal occurred under the guise of law, but in the absence of it.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because a mother should not have to reconstruct the legal history of her children's removal from outside the courtroom.

Because when there is no hearing notice, no judgment, no service, and no transcript, the term “care order” becomes a fiction—a euphemism for enforced disappearance.

Because when a disabled U.S. citizen is excluded from her own family law matter, the question is not “what went wrong,” but rather: how many rights had to be ignored to pull it off?

Because history is being rewritten while it’s happening. So SWANK is writing it down instead.

IV. Violations

Children Act 1989 – Section 38 & 44
Human Rights Act 1998 – Articles 6 & 8
Equality Act 2010 – Sections 20 & 29
Family Procedure Rules – Part 12, Part 18
UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – Articles 3, 9
Public Law Standards – Notice, Service, Disclosure

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not a procedural history. It is an evidentiary indictment.

A timeline of what happens when the state forgets to follow its own script. When hearings occur without parties, and orders are implemented without being seen. When the very institutions entrusted with family protection become operatives of political retaliation.

There is no safeguarding here—only a stage play where the parent is never given a line.

SWANK London Ltd. has filed this record not for commentary, but for canonisation. What the court omits, we enshrine.

In re Chromatic v. Local Authority (UK), Regarding the International Notification of Child Removal and the Consular Silence of Empires

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-EX-0624-USCONS-DIPLOREQ
Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_USChildren_DiplomaticOversightRequest_UKEmergencyCourt
1-line summary: Formal request for diplomatic oversight submitted to U.S. Embassy following removal of four American citizen children by UK authorities.

I. What Happened

At 01:37 on 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic formally alerted American Citizen Services (U.S. Embassy, London) of the unlawful and retaliatory removal of her four minor children — all of whom are documented U.S. citizens with complex medical needs.

The UK Administrative Court had already received a Judicial Review and Emergency Reinstatement Request, citing safeguarding abuse, retaliatory supervision threats, and procedural exclusion of the mother as a litigant in person.

This email was not written as a plea.
It was a foreign policy flare.

II. What the Request Establishes

That international jurisdiction was engaged, triggering Vienna Convention obligations
That medical care for U.S. minors was interrupted by unlawful state seizure
That the request was made clearly, urgently, and with all necessary reference to active UK court proceedings
That silence by U.S. officials after notification would constitute tacit compliance with domestic overreach

You cannot claim to protect citizens abroad if you remain quiet while they are processed like local property.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because consular oversight is not decorative.
Because children who hold U.S. passports do not lose nationality when seized by British authorities.
Because silence from the Embassy after a lawful request for diplomatic intervention becomes diplomatic complicity.

SWANK does not assume abandonment.
But we document it in advance.

IV. Violations and Stakes

Removal of minors without jurisdictional clarity
Interruption of scheduled medical care (Hammersmith Hospital)
Violation of Vienna Convention Articles 5, 36, and 37
Exclusion of U.S. parent from emergency proceedings in defiance of civil filings

The letter was sent.
The evidence was public.
The children were already gone.

The only thing left to test was whether the Embassy would speak.

V. SWANK’s Position

This communication will remain part of the record — as will any silence that followed it.
The U.S. Embassy was duly and lawfully notified.
The children remain separated.
The mother continues to litigate.
The archive continues to grow.

In history, as in war, there are dispatches.
This was one.

Formal complaint to Ofsted detailing the retaliatory misuse of safeguarding powers to remove disabled children following whistleblowing and disability disclosure.

I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic (Director, SWANK London Ltd.) submitted a formal complaint to Ofsted documenting the forced removal of her four disabled children by Westminster Children’s Services and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Family Services.

Key facts:

On 23 June, an Emergency Protection removal was executed with no service of documents or judicial notice.
On 24 June, an Interim Care Order was granted in her absence, with no notification or representation.
The same individuals who orchestrated this removal were the subject of multiple safeguarding complaints she had filed prior.
Her solicitor failed to act on her behalf or accommodate her medical and communication needs, ensuring total procedural exclusion.
The local authority continued behind-the-back contact with extended family, ignoring explicit instructions.

This was not an unfortunate administrative mishap. It was a synchronised retaliation.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

Systematic abuse of emergency powers to punish protected disclosures.
Weaponisation of safeguarding as a pretext for silencing complaint.
Breach of procedural fairness and Article 6 rights.
Erosion of parental authority and privacy under the guise of child protection.
Discrimination on the basis of disability, culminating in institutional gaslighting.

This was not child protection. This was a vendetta, carefully arranged to appear lawful.

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because safeguarding is never meant to be a convenient camouflage for reprisal.
Because the only thing more dangerous than negligence is deliberate escalation designed to neutralise dissent.
Because every hidden conversation and unserved document reveals a deeper contempt for accountability.
And because SWANK is not here to curate narratives. We are here to preserve evidence.

IV. Violations

Children Act 1989 — Section 22: Duty to promote welfare
Equality Act 2010 — Sections 20–21: Failure to make reasonable adjustments
Human Rights Act 1998 — Article 6 and Article 8
Statutory Safeguarding Guidance
UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities

V. SWANK’s Position

This was not protection.
⟡ This was bureaucratic retaliation in plain sight. ⟡
SWANK does not accept the theatre of safeguarding performed to obscure the reality of institutional reprisal.
We will document every act of procedural aggression. Every time.

Formal consular intervention request following police-led seizure of all four children without hearing notice or disability accommodations.

I. What Happened

At 1:37 PM on Monday, 23 June 2025, four U.S. citizen children were removed from their home by UK authorities. The door was opened by a minor. No order was shown. No placement disclosed. The mother, Noelle Jasmine Meline Bonnee Annee Simlett, professionally known as Polly Chromatic, was disabled, nonverbal, and in litigation against the same authorities who removed them.

Despite:

Her documented medical need for written-only communication
An active Judicial Review against Westminster and RBKC
A pending N1 civil claim for £23 million
Multiple ongoing complaints to regulatory bodies
A legal archive showing procedural misconduct
— authorities forcibly removed her children without lawful participation, presence, or accessible notice.

All of it is captured on video.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

No emergency was in progress
No procedural fairness was extended
No care order was shown at the door
No disability accommodations were honoured
No destination disclosed for the children
No legal justification was provided in accessible form
No notice was given in advance — only a silent envelope, shoved into a mail chute, never acknowledged in writing

Meanwhile, the mother:

Had already submitted multiple reports of harassment
Had asked for all communication to be written
Was already suing them in court

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this isn’t child protection — it’s jurisdictional panic.
Because they didn’t just take children — they bypassed every structural safeguard to do it.
Because if they had a lawful order, they would have shown it.
Because you cannot seize American children from a disabled mother, during open litigation, and expect silence.
Because this wasn’t safeguarding.
It was a pre-emptive archive destruction attempt — and it failed.

IV. Violations

Equality Act 2010, Sections 20 and 27 – failure to accommodate; victimisation
Children Act 1989, Section 47 – no threshold met; procedural overreach
Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6, 8, and 14 – no fair trial; breach of family life; disability discrimination
UK GDPR / Data Protection Act 2018 – failure to provide written outcome or legal basis
Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (1963) – failure to notify U.S. government of citizen child removal

V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that children vanish at 1:37 PM because the mother couldn’t speak.
We do not accept that a care order lives in an envelope that never arrived by law.
We do not accept that retaliation wears a lanyard and files nothing.
We do not accept any process that forces a minor to open the door to his own removal.
We do not accept that silence equals consent.
We do not accept their secrecy.
We document it.
