“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

You Asked Me to Speak. I Sent You a Police Report Instead.



⟡ I Won’t Be Explaining Myself Out Loud. I’ll Be Filing Instead. ⟡
“Verbal harm was noted. Written refusal was issued. The police were informed.”

Formal notification to Westminster Children’s Services reaffirming lawful verbal exemption due to disability, documenting medical harm from speech, and confirming police reporting strategy for institutional abuse.


I. What Happened

On 21 November 2024, after repeated attempts by Westminster social workers to coerce verbal explanations during a period of respiratory illness, the parent issued a written notice to:

  • Sarah Newman

  • Kirsty Hornal

  • Fiona Dias-Saxena

The email:

  • Reiterated that verbal explanations had been refused for documented clinical reasons

  • Confirmed that verbal interaction causes harm and constitutes disability discrimination

  • Provided a legal basis for written-only protocol

  • Announced that police reports were being filed to document continued coercion and institutional hostility

This was not a clarification.
It was a legal position.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Westminster was repeatedly notified of the parent’s lawful verbal exemption

  • That social workers continued to pressure her to “explain” herself orally

  • That doing so aggravated asthma symptoms and psychiatric trauma

  • That the parent issued a clear warning that police were being informed of this pattern

  • That this was not miscommunication — it was systemic pressure with foreseeable medical consequences


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when you’re medically unable to speak,
and they demand that you do,
you’re not in a child welfare process — you’re in an interrogation.

Because when you’re punished for complying with your doctor’s orders,
you’re not refusing support —
you’re protecting your lungs.

And because when they keep asking for a conversation,
and you keep giving them documentation —
eventually, you stop replying to them.
And start replying to the court.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 20 and Section 27
    Failure to accommodate and retaliatory escalation following disability assertion

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 3 and 8
    Inhumane treatment through psychological and physiological aggravation

  • Children Act 1989 / 2004
    Undermining care by targeting a carer’s health during a known crisis

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – Processing Without Consent
    Repeated verbal pressure during a declared communication adjustment


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t need more explanations.
You need to read what’s already on file.

You don’t need a phone call.
You need a solicitor.

This wasn’t a breakdown in communication.
It was a refusal to honour the one already agreed.

And now, the refusal is mutual —
but ours is archived.
