“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

Chromatic v. Westminster City Council – Misrepresentation, Retaliation, and the Misuse of Professional Authority in Child Welfare



SWANK LONDON LTD – EVIDENTIARY CATALOGUE ENTRY
Filed: 10 August 2025
Ref: WCC/RBKC/RETALIATION/2025-08-10
Filename: 2025-08-10_SWANK_Letter_Westminster_FalseStatementsRetaliation.pdf
Summary: Formal demand for cessation of harmful conduct, false statements, and retaliatory behaviour towards children in care.


On the Peril of Reckless Words in the Hands of Unfit Guardians


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic issued a formal notice to Westminster Children’s Services after discovering that her child, Regal, had documented in his journal a statement allegedly made by social worker Kirsty Hornal: that she possessed videos of the mother threatening to kill herself. The journal was originally shared by Regal to show his maths work — the disclosure emerged upon review, prompting independent reporting of the abuse.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  1. The statement, if made, constitutes emotional abuse and a clear safeguarding violation.

  2. Westminster’s conduct towards the children is hostile, humiliating, and intimidatory.

  3. False narratives and retaliatory behaviour are being deployed as behavioural control tactics.

  4. The children are being subjected to instructions that are unlawful, unreasonable, and harmful.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when a child’s academic work becomes a vessel for abuse disclosures, it demonstrates not only the courage of the child but the failure of the institution. SWANK London Ltd. records this not merely as misconduct, but as evidence of systemic unsuitability for child guardianship.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.31 – Emotional harm to children.

  • Working Together to Safeguard Children – Breach of statutory safeguarding duties.

  • Article 8 ECHR – Interference with family life absent lawful basis.

  • Public Sector Equality Duty – Failure to respect dignity and avoid discriminatory treatment.


V. SWANK’s Position

Westminster’s conduct reflects a conflation of authority with impunity. The children are under no lawful obligation to submit to instructions that are unlawful, unethical, or harmful — nor is any member of the public. Professional bias dressed as safeguarding is a dangerous masquerade, and SWANK London Ltd. will continue to catalogue each breach until such practices are eradicated.


Final Paragraph – SWANK’s Legal-Aesthetic Authority
If Westminster’s working assumption is that all behaviour springs from hate, the error lies not in the children’s conduct but in the warped lens of those charged with their care. SWANK London Ltd. will hold the record until the narrative is reclaimed by truth.

In re: Murphy (WCC) – Coercive Suppression of Child Voice and Emotional Abuse Allegations



SWANK LONDON LTD

Filed: 8 August 2025
Reference Code: SWANK/ETHICS/MURPHY-ABUSE-2025
PDF Filename: 2025-08-08_SWANK_Letter_Murphy_EmotionalAbuseAndSuppression.pdf
One-Line Summary: Formal notice to Westminster’s Mr. Murphy regarding emotional abuse, coercion, and suppression of child voice.


From the Bench of the Mirror Court

In re: The Matter of Mr. Murphy’s Credential-Shy Coercion v. The Voice of the Child


I. What Happened

During supervised contact, my children disclosed that Mr. Murphy — operating under Westminster Children’s Services — has:

  • Discouraged them from expressing their wishes;

  • Threatened them with separation for speaking openly about their experiences; and

  • Attempted to dissuade them from disclosing concerns about their foster placement.

This behaviour was neither accidental nor incidental. It was deliberate, patterned, and wholly incompatible with lawful safeguarding practice.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

Mr. Murphy’s conduct constitutes:

  • Emotional abuse under Children Act 1989, s.31;

  • A breach of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Article 12;

  • Potential criminality under the Malicious Communications Act 1988 and Misfeasance in Public Office; and

  • A direct violation of Article 8 ECHR – the right to private and family life.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

SWANK London Ltd. is committed to archiving instances of procedural malpractice, safeguarding misuse, and the weaponisation of authority against children’s voices. This case exemplifies all three.


IV. Violations

  1. Suppression of Child Voice – An unlawful silencing of the very individuals the system purports to protect.

  2. Use of Threats as Behaviour Management – A safeguarding abomination.

  3. Failure to Uphold Professional Standards – No evidence of relevant training in child psychology or trauma-informed care.


V. SWANK’s Position

The Mirror Court is unimpressed by Mr. Murphy’s apparent reluctance to operate within the confines of law, ethics, and basic decency. A 48-hour written response has been demanded, including:

  • Proof of safeguarding qualifications;

  • Evidence of formal training in child psychology and trauma-informed care;

  • A plan to permanently end the suppression of lawful communication by my children.

Failure to respond will be treated as a refusal, preserved in the evidentiary record, and escalated to court and oversight bodies — with the U.S. Consulate already on copy.

The Letter That Corrected the Record. With Names, Dates, and the Receipts.



⟡ SWANK Medical Abuse Rebuttal Archive ⟡

“They Called It a Welfare Check. It Was a Coordinated Attack.”

I. They Claimed to Be Helping. They Orchestrated a Violation.

On 24 October 2020, this formal letter was issued to legal counsel by SWANK’s Director.
It does not ask for justice.
It records the failure of it.

This document is a comprehensive timeline correction, setting the record straight on:

  • The sexualised “medical” inspections of three boys by Dr. Antrieve Benjamin,

  • The coercive tactics employed by TCI’s Department of Social Development,

  • And the years-long paper trail of deceit, fabricated referrals, and procedural theatre.

This isn’t a complaint.
It’s a surgical rebuttal — dated, footnoted, and unflinching.


II. What the Letter Makes Clear

  • That no medical safeguarding threshold was ever triggered

  • That the infamous May 2017 “exam” was neither consented to nor lawful

  • That housing conditions were fabricated post-hoc to justify the intrusion

  • That the system relied on the victim’s silence to complete the narrative

They did not expect you to respond.
They certainly did not expect you to file it, timestamp it, and publish it.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because they manipulated chronology to conceal state harm.
Because they mistook trauma for weakness.
Because they assumed — as they always do — that a disabled woman with children would have neither memory nor archive.

We filed it because:

  • It is the primary counter-narrative to a fabricated state dossier

  • It restores intellectual control over a moment engineered to strip bodily control

  • It names names, dates, and addresses — not in rage, but in register

This is not an appeal.
It is a formal correction to the colonial record.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not request clarification from those who violated consent.
We deliver it — on headed paper, with legal structure.

We do not let their summary stand.
We issue our own.

Let the record show:

They said welfare.
They meant surveillance.
They performed assault.
And we filed the reply — with timestamps and tone.

This isn’t closure.
This is archival jurisprudence.

And retaliation deserves an archive.

You Called It an Exam. My Sons Called It Abuse.



⟡ SWANK Complaint Archive: Medical Abuse Series ⟡

“Nine Adults, One Table: The Day Safeguarding Became Spectacle.”
Filed: 8 November 2020
Reference: SWANK/CTMC/TCI/MEDICAL-ABUSE-2017-2019
📎 Download PDF – 2020-11-08_SWANK_CTMC_Complaint_MedicalAbuse_SafeguardingViolation_TCI.pdf


I. It Wasn’t an Exam. It Was a State-Orchestrated Violation.

On an unnamed day between 2017 and 2019, a disabled mother and her sons were summoned to a clinic in Grand Turk. They were told it was procedural. It was safeguarding. It was concern.

What followed was a coerced genital inspection:

  • Conducted under threat

  • Surrounded by state agents

  • With police and social workers nodding and watching, and Dr. Antrieve Benjamin presiding over a theatre of humiliation

This wasn’t protection.
This was punishment — in latex gloves.


II. What the Complaint Documents

  • Three boys, lined up for coerced genital inspection without medical need

  • One child dragged from under a chair and forcibly examined

  • Another asked about circumcision status by a non-consensual examiner

  • A fabricated rationale ("abuse concerns") applied post-facto — with no prior trigger or referral

  • Psychological trauma, institutional betrayal, and archival silence

No one intervened.

Because everyone was complicit.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because the phrase “for their own good” has become the institutional cloak of abuse.

Because when the state says “safeguarding,” it often means silencing.

Because no one else will name it what it was:

  • Not welfare

  • Not medical care

  • Not oversight

Ritualised degradation masquerading as concern

This document is not for closure.
It is for record.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not allow medical abuse to pass as routine.
We do not redact the names of state-paid participants.

We do not write euphemistically about trauma.
We preserve it — precisely, coldly, and in PDF.

Let the record show:

They assembled nine adults.
They performed a spectacle.
They breached bodily sovereignty under bureaucratic guise.
And now, it’s permanent — because we filed it, not because they apologised.

This wasn’t safeguarding.
This was state-sanctioned voyeurism.
