⟡ SWANK Conference Dispatch ⟡
28 February 2024
If There’s a Concern, Why Has No One Shared It?
I. A Meeting Invitation—Missing Its Premise
On 28 February 2024, Rhiannon Hodgson, Case Conference Coordinator for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC), issues a formal letter to Polly Chromatic:
You are invited to attend a Child Protection Conference regarding Regal, Prerogative, Kingdom & Heir on Monday 4 March at 10:30am, at the Malton Road Hub.
Attached: a CPC preparation form.
Absent: any explanation of what the concern actually is.
No allegations. No incident. No cause.
Just a scheduled event demanding presence and submission — without basis.
II. Polly’s Response—Elegant and Devastating
Sent the same morning, timestamped 10:59, from noellebonneannee@me.com, Bcc’d to Nannette Nicholson for institutional memorialisation:
“No one has expressed to me why they are worried about my children.”
“It would be nice if someone could inform me.”
That is the entire response.
A sentence with more dignity than the entire procedure.
A legal haiku of parental defiance.
III. The Pattern: Protecting Children From… What, Exactly?
This is not safeguarding.
This is administrative theatre without a script.
To date, Polly had:
Provided documentation
Repeatedly stated her boundaries
Responded to every referral
Requested clarity multiple times
And yet — RBKC schedules a multi-child protection meeting with no allegation, no trigger, and no procedural legitimacy.
This isn’t protection.
It’s harassment by calendar invite.
