I. The Formal Warning They Pretended Not to Receive
On 2 June 2025, SWANK London Ltd. submitted a formal written complaint to Westminster City Council regarding the conduct of Kirsty Hornal, following her now-infamous email dated 31 May 2025.
The message — threatening court action without meeting, assessment, or lawful basis — arrived:
In the midst of live litigation
In clear breach of disability adjustments
And with all the tonal subtlety of a bureaucratic threat wearing child protection drag
This internal complaint was not performative.
It was a final chance to behave.
They didn’t.
II. What They Were Told — and What They Ignored
The complaint explicitly laid out the following:
That written-only contact had been formally acknowledged by Westminster
That Sections 20, 26, and 27 of the Equality Act 2010 had been breached
That the act constituted harassment and victimisation under colour of law
That a police report (Ref: ROC10979-25-0101-IR) had already been filed
That their employee’s conduct occurred during a live civil claim already on record
This was not a miscommunication.
This was procedural cruelty hidden in Outlook formatting.
III. Evidence Submitted
The complaint included:
Exhibit A – The coercive email from Ms. Hornal (31 May 2025)
Exhibit B – A formal threat summary, with legal framing
Exhibit C – The official Metropolitan Police Report
Each exhibit was attached not for argument, but for legal forewarning — a fact Westminster is now institutionally bound to.
IV. Relief Sought
The requested reliefs were not extravagant. They were basic adherence to civilised conduct:
Acknowledge the complaint
Confirm no proceedings are underway
Ensure written-only contact moving forward
Investigate the use of safeguarding as intimidation
To ignore these is not incompetence. It is tactical negligence.
V. SWANK’s Position
We do not confuse politeness with compliance.
We filed this complaint to complete the evidentiary chain — the proof that Westminster was given notice, documentation, and a lawful chance to remedy.
They did not.
That decision now lives in the archive, alongside the email, the police report, the SWE referral, and the Ombudsman complaint.
This isn’t just a council failing.
This is what administrative retaliation looks like on record.
