“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

From Custody to Clerical Theatre: On the Aesthetic Futility of Bureaucratic Babysitting



⟡ Addendum: Babysitting as Retaliation While Procedural Destruction is Logged ⟡

Filed: 26 September 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCCS/PLO-BABYSITTING
Download PDF: 2025-09-26_PLOCore_Addendum_BabysittingRetaliation.pdf
Summary: Westminster reduces safeguarding to babysitting while the mother converts absence into evidentiary destruction of their case.


I. What Happened

• Westminster Children’s Services removed four U.S. citizen children into state custody.
• Instead of cultural enrichment, medical care, or educational continuity, the Authority offers little more than occupancy management — babysitting by another name.
• The mother, meanwhile, exploited this imposed absence to expand her evidentiary catalogue: Equality Act notices, addenda, regulator complaints, and judicial filings.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Supervision without substance: Westminster’s involvement is hollow, producing no measurable welfare benefit.
• Financial waste: Public funds spent on babysitting rather than safeguarding.
• Retaliatory motive: Removal coincided with oversight complaints, showing process misuse.
• Strategic backfire: The Authority hoped to weaken the mother; instead, she built case law-grade documentation.
• Cultural regression: The children’s inheritance of orchestras and museums traded for administrative holding patterns.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• To document that safeguarding has been degraded into bureaucratic theatre.
• To expose the irony: they mind the children; she minds the law.
• To preserve a record of how retaliation not only failed but produced its own evidentiary collapse.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Children Act 1989, s.1 – welfare requires continuity and enrichment, not idle occupation.
• ECHR, Article 8 – interference cannot be justified by mere babysitting.
• Equality Act 2010 – refusal to adjust for asthma-sensitive, stability-based routines.
• UNCRC, Articles 3, 8, 31 – best interests, identity, and cultural rights violated.
• Bromley, Family Law (p.640) – safeguarding without consent or proportionality is misuse; here it is reduced to babysitting.
• Merris Amos, Human Rights Law – proportionality demands welfare gain; hollow interventions at public expense fail.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding. This is administrative babysitting masquerading as child protection.

Westminster’s removal has not weakened the mother — it has strengthened her. Each day of custody without substance is another day the evidentiary archive grows.

They purchased a babysitting shift; she produced case law.

SWANK London Ltd. therefore records: from culture to clutter, orchestras to office blocks, safeguarding to babysitting — this theatre collapses under its own script, exposed by Bromley and Human Rights authority alike.

In the Matter of RBKC’s Closure Determination (2023) and Westminster’s Contradictory EPO Application (2025)



⟡ ADDENDUM: CONTRADICTIONS IN SAFEGUARDING NARRATIVES ⟡

Filed: 23 September 2025
Reference: SWANK/WESTMINSTER/CONTRADICTIONS
Download PDF: 2025-09-23_Addendum_Contradictions_RBKCClosure_WestminsterEPO.pdf
Summary: RBKC closed shouting/cannabis/hygiene in 2023; Westminster recycled same themes in 2025.


I. What Happened

  • July 2023 (RBKC): Police referral investigated (shouting, cannabis, hygiene). RBKC social workers Jessica Miller & Eric Wedge-Bull visited homes, spoke with children, and concluded no safeguarding threshold was met. Case closed to Family & Children’s Services.

  • June 2025 (Westminster): Westminster applied for an Emergency Protection Order citing the same themes RBKC had already dismissed. No new evidence was introduced.


II. What the Document Establishes

  • RBKC formally closed the case in 2023 with no safeguarding threshold.

  • Westminster recycled disproven allegations in 2025 to obtain an EPO.

  • Clear contradiction between two local authority determinations.

  • Evidence of procedural abuse and retaliatory escalation.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

  • Legal relevance: Grounds for strike-out/variation of EPO.

  • Educational precedent: Demonstrates safeguarding inconsistency between boroughs.

  • Historical preservation: Pattern of recycled allegations documented.

  • Pattern recognition: Echoes identical safeguarding misuse logged in Turks & Caicos (2016–2020).


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.47 & s.44 — thresholds misapplied, disproven themes recycled.

  • Equality Act 2010, s.20 — disability adjustments ignored (asthma, dysphonia).

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 ECHR — interference with family life disproportionate. (cf. Amos, Human Rights Law, proportionality test).

  • Bromley, Family Law (12th ed., p.640) — misuse of safeguarding powers without consent or necessity.

  • Public Law Principles — consistency, proportionality, non-retaliation breached.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding. This is juridical parody.

  • We do not accept Westminster’s recycling of disproven allegations.

  • We reject the EPO’s reliance on themes RBKC had closed.

  • We will document this contradiction as evidence of institutional harassment in all parallel claims and international forums.

Chromatic v Tyranny in Disguise – On the Unforgivable Weaponisation of Safeguarding Against an Educated Mother



 “My Children Deserve Better Than This Government”

⟡ A 10-Page Petition Detailing Safeguarding Abuse, State Harassment, Medical Assault, and Constitutional Erosion

IN THE MATTER OF: Systemic incompetence, sexualised medical violence, lawful homeschooling, and the state’s deep confusion about how laws work


⟡ METADATA

Filed: 15 July 2020
Reference Code: SWANK-TCI-HRC-FINALPETITION
Court File Name: 2020-07-15_Records_HRCComplaintSocialDevelopmentAbuseAndRightsViolations
Summary: This final, exhaustive petition to the Human Rights Commission outlines 3.5 years of harassment by the Department of Social Development. It details unlawful investigations, medical abuse of children, constitutional breaches, homeschooling sabotage, disability discrimination, trespass during COVID lockdown, and the state’s absolute inability to articulate the legal basis of its interference. It is statutorily referenced, medically supported, and completely devastating.


I. What Happened

After obtaining full legal approval to homeschool her children, Polly Chromatic (then Noelle Bonneannée) endured a multi-year campaign of safeguarding “concern” that involved:

  • Sexual assault of her sons on hospital exam tables in front of 9 adults

  • Illegal trespass on private property during the COVID lockdown

  • Unlawful demands to forcibly retract her children’s foreskin

  • Yelling through her windows

  • Entering her home without notice

  • Ignoring her formal complaints and medical documentation

  • Refusing to close an investigation or provide the mandatory written report

Despite following every procedure, submitting every curriculum, and responding to every demand, she and her children remained targeted. This petition exposes every part of that misconduct.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That TCI’s Children Ordinance 2015 §17(6) mandates that parents receive investigation reports — which never occurred

  • That the Emergency Powers (COVID-19) Regulations were violated by social workers entering private property during lockdown

  • That the Department of Social Development caused emotional and psychological abuse through medical misconduct and invasive, erratic visits

  • That constitutional rights were violated in no fewer than 11 categories, including:

    • Right to family life

    • Protection from inhuman treatment

    • Right to education

    • Freedom of conscience and belief

    • Freedom from discrimination

    • Protection of property and private life

  • That the state failed to follow its own laws, ignored documentation, and repeatedly disrupted the wellbeing of a thriving, legally protected homeschool family


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when safeguarding becomes sexual abuse, someone must file it. Because the law exists to protect children — not to harass their mothers. Because composting toilets are not child endangerment. Because quoting §17(6) for the sixth time in six months is not “excessive” — it’s survival. And because this petition proves, with chilling clarity, that the government of Turks and Caicos was not protecting a family — it was dismantling one.


IV. Violations

  • Statutory breach of Children Ordinance 2015 §17(6)

  • Violation of Education Ordinance 2009

  • Violation of Emergency Powers (COVID-19) Regulations

  • Unlawful trespass

  • Sexual assault of children by medical staff

  • Disability discrimination (eosinophilic asthma)

  • Procedural harassment and emotional trauma

  • 11 direct constitutional rights violations

  • Misuse of safeguarding to enforce cultural conformity


V. SWANK’s Position

We log this petition as a constitutional masterpiece. SWANK London Ltd. affirms:

  • That this case is not about protection — it is about persecution

  • That forcing foreskin retraction is not “cultural difference” — it is abuse

  • That social workers yelling through windows during a pandemic are not acting in anyone’s best interest

  • That quoting 10 laws in 10 pages is not excess — it is defence

  • That this document belongs in a law school textbook titled “What Happens When the State Forgets Its Place”

Due Process Postponed: Westminster Cancels PLO With a One-Line Email



⟡ “We’ll Cancel Your Legal Meeting — Without Reason, Without Notice, Without Shame” ⟡
A legally mandated child protection meeting scrapped by email. No explanation. No urgency. No accountability.

Filed: 1 May 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/PLO-04
📎 Download PDF – 2025-05-01_SWANK_Email_Westminster_PLOCancellation_KHornal.pdf
Email from Kirsty Hornal (WCC) casually cancelling a scheduled PLO meeting — without justification, replacement date, or regard for procedural integrity.


I. What Happened

On 1 May 2025, Kirsty Hornal of Westminster Children’s Services sent an email cancelling a scheduled Public Law Outline (PLO) meeting. The reason? None provided. The replacement date? “Please look out for further notification.” This message was issued less than 48 hours before the statutory meeting and included no reference to the family’s medical accommodations, legal status, or the implications of delay on safeguarding.

It is a shining example of how public authorities exercise complete indifference when it is their own procedural duties on the line — while punishing families for the slightest deviation from expectations.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Disregard for legal obligations under the Children Act and PLO guidance

  • Sudden cancellation of a mandatory child protection meeting

  • Absence of explanation or rescheduling protocol

  • Ongoing evidence of administrative retaliation and emotional destabilisation

  • Institutional mismanagement during active legal escalation


III. Why SWANK Filed It

In most jurisdictions, a meeting this critical — one that may lead to child removal or court proceedings — would require notice, documentation, and written reasons. In Westminster, apparently, it can be cancelled with less than two lines of text. This document confirms what other records have already shown: the authority's misuse of process is not reactive — it is routine.

SWANK archived this document to:

  • Expose Westminster’s pattern of PLO disruption, delay, and informalism

  • Demonstrate how administrative instability is used to psychologically destabilise families

  • Reinforce the evidentiary trail for judicial review, ombudsman filings, and public accountability


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Failure to ensure procedural fairness in child protection planning

  • Public Law Outline Protocol – Undue delay and lack of documentation

  • Equality Act 2010 – Ignoring written-communication adjustments

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 6 (fair trial), Article 8 (private/family life)

  • Social Work England Professional Standards – Breach of integrity, clarity, and reliability


V. SWANK’s Position

The PLO process is not a social calendar. It is a legally codified pathway through which families are threatened with court intervention — often without cause. Cancelling these meetings without notice, documentation, or rationale is not just negligent. It is institutionally violent.

SWANK London Ltd. calls for immediate intervention by oversight bodies to investigate the cancellation patterns within Westminster Children’s Services — particularly those linked to families asserting disability rights or resisting procedural abuse.

When Lawyers Must Remind the State of Basic Procedure



⟡ SWANK Legal Dispatch ⟡

A Formal Dressing Down Delivered in Legal Stationery
September 2020

Noncompliance Requires a Plan to Exist First


I. Representation Acquired, Patience Exhausted

After three years of silence, evasions, and procedural delusion, Polly Chromatic appointed legal counsel to confront the Department of Social Development (DSD) in Grand Turk.

The result? A legal letter so fundamental, it had to remind the state that a person cannot be accused of noncompliance with a plan they have never received.

The social worker’s assertion: noncompliance.
The solicitor’s response: defamatory nonsense.


II. F CHAMBERS Responds with Elegance and Fire

Let the record show:

  • Polly’s communications—meticulous, archived, repeated.

  • DSD’s engagement—non-existent, until prompted by legal pressure.

  • The infamous “August 2019 Care Plan” was never served, never disclosed, and possibly never existed.

“How can our client be non-compliant with a Care Plan she has never received?”

The question is legal. The answer is obvious. The shame is theirs.


III. Legal Violations Identified by Counsel

The Department of Social Development failed to:

  • Disclose any complaint or allegation

  • Provide a single report regarding the family

  • Honour constitutional protections

  • Observe natural justice or procedural fairness

“It is trite law that any person, before having their fundamental rights and freedoms infringed, deserves to know the complaint against them.”

Apparently, this was news to DSD.


IV. Requests Made on Record

The solicitors at F CHAMBERS issued the following demands, on the legal record:

  • All case reports from the beginning of proceedings

  • All medical records held on the children

  • The mythical August 2019 Care Plan, if it exists

Until these are disclosed, the letter states, any expectation of engagement is unreasonable—and legally void.


V. Legal Tone, But the Message Is Crystal Clear

“Our client wishes to do all that is required… but this does require that all parties act with full transparency, fairness, and reasonableness.”

Translation?
Do your job—or kindly get out of the way.

💁‍♀️ On the Institutional Failure to Recognise Disability Harm: A Case Study in Bureaucratic Callousness



ON THE INSTITUTIONALISED FAILURE TO RECOGNISE DISABILITY HARM: A CASE STUDY IN SOCIAL WORK INEPTITUDE


17 January 2025

A Formal Reflection on Correspondence with Ms. Kristen House


The Context

It is with both gravity and weary inevitability that I place before the public record the following lamentable exchange — a demonstration, if any further were needed, of the systemic incapacity within certain child safeguarding authorities to comprehend, prevent, or take responsibility for the very harm they so loudly profess to oppose.

The correspondence, originating from Ms. Kristan House of Westminster City Council, responds to my desperate and explicit warnings regarding the medical and existential danger posed to me by persistent harassment.


The Exchange

Sent: 14 January 2025
From: Polly Chromatic (pollychromatic@me.com)
Subject: You Will Cause My Death with All Your Harassment of Me

"You're probably going to cause my death as you continue to exacerbate my asthma with hostile behaviour and disrespecting my boundaries ... if the judge threatens me again, I'm going to make a police report against her.
When you cause my death, all the evidence is here."

Link to Evidence Provided:
https://youtu.be/b_CL0cfe06w?si=O2eumSiUzvxmNayx


Response: 15 January 2025
From: Kirsty Hornal (khornal@westminster.gov.uk)
Subject: RE: You Will Cause My Death with All Your Harassment of Me

_"Hi,
I am afraid that link is not working, are you able to resend?

What happened with the judge? I am guessing you have been in court over the past few days as you are speaking about threats from the judge. What was the outcome?

I also note other emails about panic attacks? I really hope you are ok and that you feel you can reach out to Dr. Reid about these issues.

Thank you Noelle

Kristen"_


❖ ANALYSIS: ON THE FAILURE TO RECOGNISE CRY OF DISTRESS

It is difficult to overstate the extraordinary inadequacy of this response.

In the face of a direct declaration that ongoing harassment is contributing to my respiratory deterioration and placing my life at risk — accompanied by clear evidence — Ms. Hornal's chosen approach is threefold:
— Dismiss the urgent evidence by complaining the link is "not working";
— Gossip idly about court outcomes;
— Refer me back, with breathtaking negligence, to a general practitioner.

No acceptance of responsibility.
No urgent safeguarding response.
No reasonable adjustment.
No procedural reflection.

One might almost admire the unwavering mediocrity — were it not so dangerously unfit for purpose.


❖ ON THE LEGAL BREACHES INVOLVED

The conduct documented herein constitutes:
— A violation of Section 20 of the Equality Act 2010 (failure to provide reasonable adjustments);
— A violation of Section 149 of the Equality Act 2010 (failure to have due regard to disability-related harm);
— An interference with Article 8 rights under the Human Rights Act 1998 (right to private and family life and to physical and psychological integrity).

It also, quite plainly, constitutes a catastrophic ethical failure on the part of a registered social work practitioner.


Yours, with grave concern and unwavering procedural fidelity,
Polly Chromatic
