“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

A formal tip submitted to Channel 4’s Dispatches, placing legal, medical, and regulatory evidence into the hands of national investigative journalism. Describes the coordinated abuse of safeguarding frameworks against a disabled family in lawful proceedings. The press has been briefed. The archive has logged it.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., submitted a documentary tip to Channel 4’s Dispatches team, outlining:

  • A pattern of multi-agency misconduct

  • The use of fabricated safeguarding concerns following civil complaints

  • Retaliation by police, NHS trusts, and social workers

  • A £23 million claim for legal damages, already filed

  • A press release enclosing statutory references and legal breaches

This tip is not an emotional disclosure — it is a forensic, jurisdictional act of witness.


II. What the Tip Establishes

  • That a major UK broadcaster has been placed on formal notice

  • That the evidence submitted includes medical, legal, and procedural documentation

  • That this case is not isolated — it mirrors national patterns of disability retaliation masked as care

  • That Channel 4 now holds recorded knowledge of the harm — and can no longer claim neutrality through ignorance


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because safeguarding is being used to retaliate.
Because the courts are slow, the regulators are silent, and the archive can’t wait.

Because once the story is told,
They’ll say no one knew.
They’ll say the press weren’t contacted.
They’ll say the public never saw.

So SWANK shows them:
The press were told.
The documents were sent.
And now the file lives online.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that TV must wait until after a tragedy.
We do not accept that evidence needs virality to deserve coverage.
We do not accept that a mother must choose between legal pursuit and her child’s protection.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the state targets us,
We target the narrative.
If the system hides it,
We submit it.
And if the story never airs,
We air it here — with a file name, a date stamp, and a jurisdictional receipt.

A Social Worker’s Sword: Misconduct, Discrimination, and the Art of Retaliation in Westminster



Referral to Social Work England

Regarding the Conduct of Ms Kirsty Hornal – Retaliatory Safeguarding, Disability Contempt, and Abuse of Registered Authority

Subject: Formal Fitness to Practise Referral – Kirsty Hornal (Westminster Children’s Services)

Concerning Misuse of Safeguarding Powers, Procedural Malfeasance, and Discriminatory Conduct toward a Disabled Litigant

Dear Professional Standards Team,

I write, with the requisite exhaustion of one too frequently targeted by institutional disdain, to raise a formal referral against Ms Kirsty Hornal, social worker employed by Westminster City Council Children’s Services, whose recent conduct has pierced the boundaries of professional decency and landed squarely in the domain of coercive misconduct.


๐Ÿ•ฏ The Incident in Brief — Though Nothing About It Was Briefly Endured

On 31 May 2025, Ms Hornal issued me an unsolicited and aggressive email, stating that “the local authority is applying to court for a supervision order.” The communication was:

  • Unanchored in legal reality, risk evidence, or safeguarding protocol

  • Devoid of procedural grounding, and therefore gratuitously menacing

  • A retaliatory dispatch, sent in the midst of my civil claim against her employer

  • A flagrant disregard of my disability accommodations, which prohibit surprise escalations or verbal manoeuvrings

  • Delivered as if law were theatre, and I, its unwillingly cast antagonist

One does not need a law degree — though I have certainly acted as though I hold several — to see this was not safeguarding. It was retribution masquerading as duty.


⚖ Enumerated Breaches of Professional Standards

The following Professional Standards, issued by your own body, were treated by Ms Hornal as optional dรฉcor:

  • 1.6 – Failing to treat me as an individual or to respect my legal and medical status

  • 1.7 – Communicating in a manner that was neither appropriate, open, nor honest — unless one considers veiled threats a form of transparency

  • 1.9 – Exploiting her statutory position to intimidate, not protect

  • 2.2 – Collapsing the necessary boundary between professional role and personal vendetta

  • 5.4 – Causing risk, not mitigating it; undermining confidence in social work as a domain of safeguarding rather than silencing


๐ŸŽญ Context – Which She Cannot Claim to Have Missed

I am a disabled mother of four, managing complex PTSD and muscle tension dysphonia — conditions formally documented and acknowledged by Westminster multiple times. My written-only communication directive has been repeatedly submitted. Yet, Ms Hornal chose to escalate through litigation theatre without process, consultation, or lawful basis. Her actions are not merely improper — they are institutionally corrosive.

Police involvement (Ref: ROC10979-25-0101-IR) has been necessitated. That, in itself, is an indictment of this profession’s failure to police its own.


๐Ÿ—‚ Documents Available for Your Review

  • Exhibit A: Ms Hornal’s email (31 May 2025)

  • Exhibit B: Communication directives and medical documentation

  • Exhibit C: Metropolitan Police report, filed 2 June 2025

  • Exhibit D: Civil litigation materials proving conflict of interest


๐Ÿงพ Remedy Sought

I request, in the interests of public trust and professional integrity, that Social Work England initiate an immediate fitness to practise review. This is not a matter of “conflict resolution.” It is a matter of removing individuals who weaponise statutory authority for bureaucratic vengeance.

I trust that Social Work England wishes to be perceived not merely as a registration body, but as a guardian of ethical standards. Please do not let this one pass beneath the rug so many others have already vanished under.

Yours, exquisitely unimpressed,

They Retaliated for Asking for Access. — A Case Built for Public Record, Now Delivered to the Press



⟡ Media Briefing Filed: Multi-Agency Abuse, Medical Harm, Legal Proof ⟡

“I am a disabled mother who has been repeatedly targeted for retaliation after requesting lawful disability adjustments and submitting formal legal complaints.”

Filed: 2 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/MEDIA/BRIEFING-01

A formal media briefing sent to investigative journalist Maeve McClenaghan. Encloses legal and medical evidence of multi-agency retaliation, fabricated safeguarding, and the weaponisation of care systems against a disabled family.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., issued a formal press briefing to journalist Maeve McClenaghan at The Bureau of Investigative Journalism.

The briefing includes:

  • A synopsis of multi-agency harm involving social workers, police, and NHS Trusts

  • Summary of civil, regulatory, and criminal filings already on record

  • Disclosure of written-only medical adjustments repeatedly violated

  • Evidence of safeguarding abuse, negligence, and institutional collusion

  • Direct reference to Equality Act breaches and formal regulatory escalation

This is not an informal tip-off.
It is a procedural act of public witness.


II. What the Briefing Establishes

  • That a public-interest reporter has been formally notified

  • That the case involves disabled children, regulatory evasion, and state-based retaliation

  • That enclosed materials meet the threshold for investigation, not summary dismissal

  • That silence in response will also become part of the record


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when legal complaints vanish into mailboxes,
And medical accommodations are treated as invitations for harm,
And safeguarding is weaponised by those meant to protect —

The press must be notified.
Not because we hope — but because we file.
If power won’t acknowledge the truth,
SWANK sends it to someone who will.

And if no one listens,
We publish the silence with the same level of proof.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that media interest must be begged.
We do not accept that evidence must scream to be seen.
We do not accept institutional collusion as untouchable.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the regulators fail,
We brief the press.
If the press ignores,
We archive the notice.
And if no one acts —
We remain the record.

The Complaint Is Filed. The Press Has Been Told. — £23 Million, Multiple Defendants, and a System That Called It Safeguarding



⟡ Public Notice Filed: £23M Complaint Over Criminal Safeguarding Abuse ⟡

“This isn’t safeguarding. It’s systemic misconduct, now quantified in damages and submitted in law.”

Filed: 2 June 2025

A formal press release sent to journalist Maeve McClenaghan summarising a £23 million legal complaint over coordinated safeguarding abuse, collusion, and systemic retaliation against a disabled family. Sent under lawful access terms. Received, now archived.


I. What Happened

On 2 June 2025, Polly Chromatic, Director of SWANK London Ltd., issued a formal press release to The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, summarising a multi-claim, multi-defendant action rooted in:

  • Criminal safeguarding misuse

  • Disability-based retaliation

  • Obstructed access to medical care

  • Police-social work collusion

  • Coordinated regulatory delay

The press release:

  • Names multiple institutional actors under active complaint

  • Cites the Equality Act 2010Fraud Act 2006Human Rights Act 1998, and Children Act 1989

  • Notes ongoing referrals to Social Work EnglandMetropolitan Police DPS, and the IOPC

  • Asserts a total claim value of £23 million, filed under sworn evidence

  • Reiterates a written-only communication policy as legally mandated and repeatedly violated


II. What the Press Release Establishes

  • That the legal claim exists, is filed, and is quantifiable

  • That the journalist has been directly and lawfully placed on notice

  • That there is public evidence of pattern-based institutional harm

  • That no future ignorance of the case can be claimed in good faith by media or regulators


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because journalism is part of the system.
Because silence from the press protects the same institutions that weaponised safeguarding.
Because this isn’t outreach — it’s recordkeeping, timed to the moment legal action becomes public.

This release isn’t a pitch.
It’s an invitation to truth — and a declaration of jurisdictional standing.


IV. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that press interest should follow only after harm has ended.
We do not accept media neglect when systems collapse in slow motion.
We do not accept that a family must suffer in silence while their abusers wear lanyards.

SWANK London Ltd. affirms:
If the press will not investigate,
We log that too.
If justice is ignored,
We publish the price.
And if £23 million is not enough to merit coverage,
We will make it archival — and impossible to delete.

Final Notice to Sarah Newman – Safeguarding Abuse, Disability Discrimination, and Legal Liability | 22 May 2025



๐Ÿ“œ Final Declaration of Procedural Hostility and Disability-Based Misconduct

A Notice of Institutional Liability and Personal Accountability

To:
Ms Sarah Newman
Executive Director, Bi-Borough Children’s Services
Westminster City Council & Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea

Date: 22 May 2025

Re: Immediate Cease and Desist – Retaliatory Safeguarding and Unlawful Interference


Dear Ms Newman,

This correspondence serves as a formal and final notice: any further attempt by you or your agents to initiate safeguarding procedures, encrypted contact, uninvited home attendance, or verbal communication with me or my children shall be construed, without ambiguity, as:

  • Sustained institutional harassment

  • Procedural retaliation targeting a civil litigant

  • Direct disability discrimination

Each of the above constitutes actionable misconduct under the Equality Act 2010, the Human Rights Act 1998, and established common law doctrines of abuse of power and failure of public duty.

You are now personally and professionally on notice. This warning will not be repeated.


⚖️ Legal and Evidentiary Architecture (Already Active)

You are reminded of the following binding structures:

  • Formal CIN refusal filed on lawful and medical grounds

  • N1 Civil ClaimN16A Injunction, and N461 Judicial Review already submitted

  • Multiple police reports filed (Refs: BCA-10622, BCA-25130, ROC-10237)

  • Formal complaints lodged with the LGSCOICONHS Trust, and GMC

  • written-only communication policy established and enforceable under the Equality Act 2010

Any deviation from these frameworks constitutes a deliberate act of defiance against court-linked and disability-adjusted boundaries.


๐Ÿ›‘ Cease and Desist Instructions – Non-Negotiable

You are hereby instructed to:

  1. Cease all contact not explicitly written and not facilitated through legal representation

  2. Cease all safeguarding initiatives unless lawfully mandated by a court of record

  3. Refrain from referring my children to any third-party service without express court-authorised cause

  4. Acknowledge institutional and individual liability for any further contact or reprisal

This shall be treated as a formal declaration of non-consent to all further interaction outside judicial or written context.


⚠ Consequences of Breach – Without Further Notice

In the event of noncompliance, I will:

  • File a personal civil claim for negligence, victimisation, and discrimination against you individually

  • Submit the breach to the High Court, appending all related misconduct to my active judicial filings

  • Publicly release the full chronology as part of a protected whistleblower archive under public interest immunity

Failure to respond will be construed as wilful negligence and escalated as such.
