“My lawyer told you I was too sick.
My GP sent a letter.
You booked the meeting anyway —
and wouldn’t even explain why.”
— A Disabled Mother Being Railroaded Through Procedure
In this formal communication dated 29 February 2024, Polly Chromatic alerts Samira Issa that both her GP and legal counsel have advised postponing an upcoming child protection meeting. The reason? Polly’s medical condition — documented and ongoing — requires hospital treatment and aftercare.
Rather than postponing or offering written justification, Samira refused to adjust the timeline. No rationale was given. No compassion offered. Only the pressure to complete a mapping document by a looming deadline.
🧾 I. What Was Requested
That Samira complete her portion of the Mapping Document first
That all meetings be postponed in light of a GP-certified health crisis
That, if a delay was refused, written justification be provided for legal escalation and clinical review
🧯 II. What Was Ignored
GP medical documentation of urgent hospital and aftercare needs
The reality that Polly was not well enough to speak or attend meetings
Standard legal and ethical guidance around accommodating a disability under UK Equality Law
The very procedural logic of requiring the professional to fill out their form first
⚖️ III. SWANK Commentary
This isn’t just negligence.
It’s deliberate procedural aggression.
You’ve got a GP letter,
a lawyer’s instruction,
a disabled mother —
and still you ask her to perform for a form
you haven’t filled in yourself.
It’s not about the child.
It’s about compliance theatre.
