“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. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Chromatic v. Westminster (Refused Answer, Claimed Concern, Removed Anyway)



⟡ SWANK London Ltd. Evidentiary Catalogue

The Enforcement Demand Westminster Pretended Not to See: Final Legal Ultimatum Before Procedural Collapse

Filed Date: 24 May 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-A14-ENFORCEMENT-DEMAND
Court File Name: 2025-05-24_SWANK_Addendum_EnforcementDemand_StatutoryBasisDisclosure
1-line Summary: Final legal demand for statutory justification, medical adjustment compliance, and Article 8 protection — ignored by Westminster prior to EPO.


I. What Happened

On 24 May 2025, Polly Chromatic issued a final legal enforcement demand to Westminster Children’s Services, specifically naming Sam BrownKirsty Hornal, and Sarah Newman. The letter was legally grounded, exhaustively referenced, and served with absolute clarity.

It demanded written responses on five critical points:

  1. Statutory Basis under the Children Act for ongoing involvement

  2. Assessment Disclosure, or written confirmation that none existed

  3. Harm Threshold, if any, justifying state interference

  4. Article 8 Justification under the Human Rights Act 1998

  5. File Destruction or Retention Disclosure under UK GDPR and the DPA 2018

Despite this being a lawful request — served in writing, citing judicial review, live litigation, medical limitations, and pending complaints — Westminster failed to respond.

One month later, the department escalated to forced removal under an Emergency Protection Order.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Westminster had no statutory grounds disclosed for their involvement

  • That the PLO had been withdrawn, yet contact persisted

  • That they were formally requested to cease, clarify, and comply, and instead ignored all points

  • That Section 20 and Equality Act obligations were cited, and no response was received

  • That this was the last lawful opportunity to resolve the matter prior to the children’s removal — and it was deliberately discarded


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this wasn’t a vague complaint — it was a structured legal ultimatum.
Because it was sent before the removalduring litigation, and with clear medical parameters.
Because it shows that Westminster did not act out of concern — they acted out of retaliation and administrative disdain.

They were not confused. They were notified.
They chose escalation over explanation.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Failure to provide lawful basis for CIN or child protection status

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20 & 149 – Refusal to comply with disability adjustment mandates

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – Interference without justification

  • UK GDPR, Article 17 – Failure to respond to data erasure request

  • Common Law Public Duty – Willful administrative obstruction in the face of formal demand


V. SWANK’s Position

This letter marks the legal point at which Westminster’s actions became indefensible.
Any claim that Polly Chromatic was “uncooperative” is refuted by this structured, lawful, final enforcement demand — issued with more legal precision than the department’s entire safeguarding apparatus.

Failure to respond confirms deliberate institutional harm, and this document will appear in every subsequent claim of:

  • Procedural misconduct

  • Disability-based retaliation

  • Family rights violation

  • Systemic safeguarding overreach

It was their final chance.
They chose silence.
Now they’ll answer to the record.

The Risk Was Death. She Replied With a Hyperlink Problem.



⟡ “I Told Her She Might Kill Me. She Replied About a Broken Link.” ⟡
A parent warns that continued institutional harassment may cause death. Westminster’s safeguarding officer replies with procedural neutralism, complete disregard for medical risk, and a question about court. This isn’t oversight. It’s administrative manslaughter in preview mode.

Filed: 15 January 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/MED-03
📎 Download PDF – 2025-01-15_SWANK_Email_Westminster_KirstyHornal_DisabilityCrisisDismissed_DeathWarning.pdf
Email thread between Polly Chromatic and WCC’s Kirsty Hornal, in which the parent states that institutional pressure is causing life-threatening asthma exacerbations. Kirsty replies about a broken Google Drive link. No medical response. No safeguarding escalation. Just bureaucracy.


I. What Happened

The subject line says it all:

“You will cause my death with all your harassment of me.”

This isn’t a metaphor. It’s a medical fact.
The parent is disabled, diagnosed, and deteriorating.
The emails are triggering asthma, panic attacks, and physiological collapse.
The verbal pressure is killing her.

And what does Westminster do?

Kirsty Hornal writes back about:

  • A broken hyperlink

  • How her “IT” couldn’t access a file

  • And whether the court application was filed yet

The death risk was ignored.
The diagnosis was invisible.
The person was admin.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That Westminster had direct knowledge of lethal medical escalation

  • That the named officer replied without referencing the risk

  • That disability adjustments (written-only contact) were still ignored

  • That procedural distraction was deployed as a containment tactic

  • That this is not miscommunication — it’s malpractice


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because this is the email that confirms it: Westminster doesn’t protect disabled people — it drives them into crisis, and then takes attendance.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It captures a death warning, ignored in writing

  • It preserves the digital trail of medical collapse as procedural failure

  • It reveals how neutral language is used to erase emergency

  • It is the moment Westminster social work became a contributing factor to lethal risk

This isn’t silence. It’s procedural violence in lowercase.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010
    • Section 20: Failure to accommodate medical disability
    • Section 27: Harassment via email pressure
    • Section 149: Duty to eliminate harm breached

  • Human Rights Act 1998
    • Article 3: Inhuman or degrading treatment
    • Article 8: Respect for private life and health

  • Children Act 1989 – Institutional endangerment of parent directly affecting child welfare

  • Social Work England Standards –
    • Inaction in the face of medical risk
    • Failure to act transparently, safely, or responsibly


V. SWANK’s Position

This isn’t “poor communication.” It’s a deliberate act of flattening — reducing a death warning to a technical glitch. When a parent begs for medical reprieve and the officer replies with a broken-link report, what’s happening is not misunderstanding — it’s dismissal. With consequences.

SWANK London Ltd. files this as a judicial-grade record of foreseeable harm, delivered to social services in writing, ignored in plain view.

Chromatic v Westminster: On the Erasure of Childhood in the Name of Process



⟡ THE CATALOGUE OF ERRORS ⟡

A Referenced Index of Institutional Contempt Disguised as Care

Filed: 2 July 2025
Reference: SWANK/WESTMINSTER/ADDENDUM-CATALOGUE-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-07-02_Addendum_WestminsterCatalogueOfErrors.pdf
A formal evidentiary addendum cataloguing Westminster's procedural sabotage, safeguarding misuse, and contact obstruction following the 23 June 2025 removal.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Westminster Children’s Services removed four U.S. citizen children from their family home under a disputed Emergency Protection Order. Since that date, the children have been isolated from all family, friends, belongings, routines, cultural life, and communication channels.

Medical appointments were cancelled. Their iPads and iPhone were withheld. Their asthma care plan disappeared. The letters they wrote to their mother were never delivered. No address was provided for her to write back. Even the food they eat has been changed.

Their joy — once found in skating, reading, bike rides, and shared meals — has been replaced by silence, surveillance, and institutional ambiguity.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The EPO was executed without transparency, disclosure, or diplomatic consultation.

  • The children were immediately cut off from every known stabilising anchor in their lives.

  • All four children have chronic asthma; all four have suffered serious attacks before. Their care plan has not been shared.

  • Their medical appointments at Hammersmith — the only remaining point of familiarity — were cancelled without notice.

  • The mother was excluded from all decisions relating to placement, health, and communication.

  • Contact has been gatekept, delayed, and conditionally offered, in clear violation of safeguarding standards.

  • Westminster has failed to respond to multiple written requests and complaints.

This is not contact planning. This is emotional embargo.
This is not safeguarding. This is strategic severance.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because no local authority should be allowed to erase a child’s life overnight.
Because skating and laughter are not risk factors.
Because asthma medication is not optional.

SWANK logged this because retaliation masquerading as child protection must be exposed for what it is — a performance of care that relies on silence, severance, and selective paperwork.

This is not the first time Westminster has acted outside law and ethics.
It is simply the first time someone has logged every line of it.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Sections 10, 17, 22, and 47

  • Human Rights Act 1998 / ECHR – Articles 3 (inhuman treatment), 6 (fair process), 8 (family life)

  • Equality Act 2010 – Failure to accommodate PTSD and disability-based communication rights

  • UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – Violation of family contact, cultural continuity, emotional stability, and medical access


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t child protection. It was clinical abandonment, masked in paperwork.
This wasn’t intervention. It was retribution.

We do not accept the institutional rewriting of safe family life into a risk narrative.
We do not accept the sudden rupture of routine, joy, or medicine.
We do not accept silence as policy.

We document what others dismiss.
And we preserve what they redact.

This Is the Document They’ll Pretend They Never Received.



⟡ “I Called the Police. I Named the Social Worker. I Filed It as a Crime.” ⟡
A formal police report submitted against Kirsty Hornal of Westminster Children’s Services for coercive behaviour, ableist harassment, and the weaponisation of safeguarding against a disabled parent. Not safeguarding. Not support. Now officially misconduct — logged as criminal.

Filed: 15 February 2025
Reference: SWANK/MPS/KH-CRIM-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-02-15_SWANK_Report_MetPolice_KirstyHornal_DisabilityAbuse_CoerciveConduct.pdf
A police complaint submitted to the Metropolitan Police under reference number BCA-10622-25-0101-IR, documenting coercion, disability discrimination, and prolonged abuse of power by Westminster officer Kirsty Hornal. Criminal complaint lodged. Support requested. Evidence confirmed.


I. What Happened

On 15 February 2025, Polly Chromatic stopped submitting letters to the council and started filing reports with the police.

The complaint detailed:

  • Years of procedural harassment framed as “safeguarding”

  • Medical diagnoses including eosinophilic asthma, muscle dysphonia, and PTSD

  • A social worker repeatedly ignoring lawful boundaries and clinical evidence

  • Coercion via visit attempts, pressure to speak despite disability, and escalation after complaint

  • Refusal of reasonable adjustment

  • Emotional trauma, home disruption, and fear of targeted retaliation

The report was clear. The suspect was named. The safeguarding fiction was reclassified as abuse.


II. What the Report Establishes

  • That Westminster’s conduct moved beyond misconduct — into criminal liability

  • That verbal disability was exploited as a pretext for escalation

  • That contact persisted after legal withdrawal of consent

  • That the parent was forced to act not as a participant — but as a whistleblower

  • That the Metropolitan Police received the evidence, the history, and the suspect’s name — all in writing


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because when a safeguarding officer is accused of endangering the person they were assigned to support — and that person is disabled — it’s not oversight. It’s state-backed oppression. And when the council ignores it, the archive doesn’t.

SWANK filed this because:

  • It’s a landmark moment in the procedural collapse of WCC safeguarding

  • It shows that internal remedies were exhausted — and formal complaint was criminally escalated

  • It marks the transition from policy failure to potential prosecution


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: Refusal of adjustment
    • Section 26: Harassment
    • Section 27: Victimisation after complaint
    • Section 149: Public sector equality duty breached

  • Protection from Harassment Act 1997 – Coercive contact after lawful refusal

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 3: Degrading treatment
    • Article 8: Home and family life invasion
    • Article 14: Discrimination via state process

  • Children Act 1989 – Procedural weaponisation causing emotional harm to family

  • Social Work England Standards – Now submitted to police for further investigation


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to call it safeguarding when your presence causes trauma, triggers symptoms, and violates medical boundaries. You don’t get to call it concern when the parent files a police report with your name on it. And you don’t get to call it “misunderstanding” when the allegations fit multiple statutes and a criminal code.

SWANK London Ltd. recognises this file as the procedural tipping point — when disability discrimination, harassment, and administrative cruelty moved into the jurisdiction of the criminal law.

You Keep Ignoring My Requests — I’m Calling a Lawyer

 📨 SWANK Dispatch: If You’re Planning Around My Children, Involve Me

🗓️ 6 August 2020

Filed Under: unacknowledged requests, investigation opacity, parental exclusion, statutory rights ignored, child welfare irony, legal escalation, bureaucratic deflection


“The danger to my children is not the home — it’s the department.”
— A Mother Who Requested Reports, Not Surprises

On the 6th of August 2020Polly Chromatic sent a crisp, restrained letter to Ashley Adams-Forbes, Deputy Director of the Department of Social Development, addressing what should never have needed to be repeated:

If you’re investigating my children,
you must tell me why.
You must show your reports.
You must include me in the process.


📂 I. The Legislative Obligation

Turks and Caicos law mandates transparency in child welfare investigations. But instead of receiving the required reports, Polly has received:

• Ongoing intrusion
• No rationale
• No documents
• No involvement in planning
• No formal explanation


🧠 II. The Threat to Her Children Comes from Within the System

She writes:

“It is the department itself that has put my children in harms way repeatedly through demonstrated acts of bad judgement.”

She’s not speculating. She’s documenting.
And she has receipts — from forced hospital visits, illegal home entries, and ignored medical risk warnings.


⚖️ Final Line:

“I have decided to consult with an attorney.”

It’s not a threat.
It’s a boundary.
A formal one — drawn after too many ignored questions, and too many invisible decisions made behind a mother’s back.



They Wanted Me to Complain Quietly. I Published Instead.



⟡ They Bullied Me at the Hospital. Then Filed a Report About Me. So I Filed One About Them. ⟡
“They told me to use the complaints process. I used the internet.”

Filed: 21 November 2024
Reference: SWANK/NHS-MPS/EMAILS-11
📎 Download PDF – 2024-11-21_SWANK_EmailComplaint_MetPolice_NHSBullying_ReportDeflection_PublicDisclosure.pdf
Formal statement to the Metropolitan Police, Westminster Children’s Services, and NHS staff responding to retaliatory complaint practices by hospital authorities and the refusal of police to act.


I. What Happened

On 21 November 2024, the parent filed a statement with the Metropolitan Police documenting:

  • Sustained bullying and harassment from NHS hospital staff

  • The pattern of hospitals filing reports against her only when she refuses to accept mistreatment

  • The refusal of the police to investigate or act, citing the matter as “civil”

  • Her explicit refusal to engage with institutional complaints procedures designed to silence abuse

  • Her decision to archive, publish, and escalate the pattern through SWANK and public record channels

The message was also sent to social worker Kirsty Hornal, NHS GP Dr Philip Reid, and legal representatives. The subject line was crystal clear: “Now you have the truth.”


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That the NHS has repeatedly retaliated against a disabled parent via safeguarding escalation when challenged

  • That hospital staff used internal reporting to weaponise professional standing rather than provide care

  • That the Metropolitan Police refused to act, advising the parent to “speak to PALS”

  • That the parent rejected internal complaints systems as futile and chose transparency instead

  • That safeguarding escalation continues to function as reputational control, not protection


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when the same hospital that dismissed your oxygen crisis tries to call the police on you for defending your child,
you’re not in a healthcare setting —
you’re in an institutional theatre.

Because when the police tell you it’s not criminal to be bullied by doctors,
they’re not protecting the public — they’re preserving the hierarchy.

And because when the system tells you to file a complaint,
but never responds to one,
you stop playing their game —
and start building your own archive.


IV. Violations

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Articles 3, 6, and 8
    Psychological harm from institutional retaliation; denial of remedy and due process

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 27
    Victimisation after asserting disability rights

  • Care Act 2014 – Duty of Safeguarding
    Misuse of safeguarding escalation in response to protected disclosure

  • Freedom of Expression – ECHR Article 10
    Protected right to document, share, and publish public interest records outside institutional complaint loops


V. SWANK’s Position

This was not a complaint.
It was a declaration of refusal.

This wasn’t about being heard.
It was about being recorded.

They wanted a form.
We gave them a file.
They wanted silence.
We gave them SWANK.
