Summary: A single email captures the institutional collusion that allowed social workers to sabotage clinical neutrality.
I. What Happened
On 13 August 2024, Polly Chromatic sent a direct email to a group of professionals spanning health, education, and children’s services. The subject line was plain—“Bullying and harassment”—but the subtext revealed institutional betrayal. After seeking support from a psychologist regarding the trauma inflicted by social workers, Polly discovered that Edward (a social worker at RBKC) had sabotaged that clinical relationship by disseminating false information to the clinician.
The list of recipients reads like a roll call of those either complicit in or silently adjacent to sustained misconduct:
Dr. Philip Reid – GP
Eric Wedge-Bull – RBKC
Annabelle Kapoor – Drayton Park School
Sarah Newman – Westminster
Dr. Liz White – Psychologist
Dias-Saxena, Pullen, Savage procedural actors
II. What the Complaint Establishes
The email serves as contemporaneous proof of:
Procedural sabotage by RBKC social workers.
A pattern of manipulating external clinicians to erode the credibility and wellbeing of the mother.
Awareness among multiple professionals of the allegations of bullying—none of whom appear to have intervened.
III. Why SWANK Logged It
This email stands as a primary document evidencing the horizontally-integrated gaslighting of a mother seeking therapeutic recourse. It illustrates not only the emotional weaponisation of "concern" but the suffocating network of silence around social worker misconduct. It also highlights a chilling theme of SWANK’s archive: that whistleblowing about safeguarding misuse results not in correction—but in escalation.
IV. Violations
Article 8 ECHR – Interference with private and family life
Equality Act 2010 – Disability-based discrimination
Children Act 1989 – Duty to act in the best interests of the child
Common Law Duty of Care – Gross breach via collusion and dishonesty
V. SWANK’s Position
There is a reason institutions distrust email: it makes misconduct traceable.
Here, we see how a simple declarative statement—“I went to a psychologist… the social workers turned her against me”—condenses years of systemic abuse into a single, mournful sentence.
The email's tone is restrained. The harm is not.
To receive therapeutic harm in response to reporting social work harm is not only unethical—it is violently unprofessional.
Polly Chromatic logs this email into the SWANK archive as an artefact of orchestrated reputational sabotage and procedural abuse. That the psychologist in question was cc’d only strengthens the chilling precision with which silence was enforced.
