“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

Email sent to WCC and RBKC officials documenting repeated NHS failures to treat respiratory emergencies, with warnings of further escalation

I. What Happened

On 23 November 2024, Polly Chromatic emailed Westminster’s Kirsty Hornal, Director Sarah Newman, RBKC staff, legal representatives, and medical consultant Dr. Philip Reid, documenting a pattern of life-threatening neglect in London’s NHS A&E services.

In the message, Polly described how her children, Prerogative, Kingdom, and Heir, were repeatedly denied adequate asthma care, improperly assessed, and sent home untreated — despite clear symptoms of respiratory distress. Medical staff reportedly became defensive when questioned, failed to use basic diagnostic tools properly (e.g. misplacement of thermometers), and treated the family as suspect rather than unwell.

Rather than escalate within hospital premises, Polly administered prescribed medication at home, logged everything, and sent this dispatch to social services to pre-empt further safeguarding misuse.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: A&E refusal to follow asthma care protocols; improper temperature readings; failure to listen to lungs properly

  • Human impact: Delayed recovery, risk of respiratory crisis, psychological trauma from medical hostility

  • Power dynamics: Disabled mother blamed for child neglect while professionals ignore medical duties

  • Institutional failure: Ongoing NHS resistance to treating visibly ill patients; deflection of risk onto parent

  • Unacceptable conduct: Reversal of blame; framing respiratory protection as maternal misconduct

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the hospital staff weren’t just underperforming — they were actively hostile.
Because this wasn’t one bad night — it was a culture of antagonism toward visibly disabled families.
Because when a parent calmly administers prednisone at home to avoid another violent encounter with A&E, the institution has already failed.
Because Polly Chromatic should never have had to write this email.
And now that she did — we’re archiving it.

This document makes it clear: if Westminster continues to cite NHS authority as credible in its safeguarding frameworks, SWANK will cite this record — and demand structural accountability.

IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, Section 17 – failure to meet the health needs of children with chronic illness

  • NHS Constitution, Patient Rights – right to safe, respectful, and effective care

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 3 & 8 – degrading treatment; interference with family and private life

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – failure to provide accessible, disability-informed care in emergency settings

  • Common Law Duty of Care – breach by NHS A&E personnel in paediatric asthma cases

V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that A&E is a battleground.
We do not accept that families should leave sicker than they arrived.
We do not accept that safeguarding frameworks can ignore NHS negligence while punishing disabled parents for intervening.

This wasn’t parental hostility.
This was medical abandonment.
And SWANK will document it — line by line, symptom by symptom, protocol by protocol.

⟡ Chromatic v Hornal: When Kindness Masked Neglect ⟡


⟡ “Sympathy Without Action Is Neglect With a Smile.” ⟡
Formal complaint to the Ombudsman documenting passive abuse by Kirsty Hornal through inaction, delay, and selective compassion

Filed: 5 April 2025
Reference: SWANK/WESTMINSTER/LGO-HORNAL-INACTION

Ombudsman complaint citing systemic inaction and disability harm enabled by Kirsty Hornal’s failure to intervene despite awareness

I. What Happened

On 5 April 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal complaint to the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman, targeting the passive neglect of Kirsty Hornal, a social worker within Westminster Children’s Services.

Though Hornal communicated with superficial empathy, she failed to implement any substantive protection or enforce legally mandated disability accommodations. She acknowledged harm, promised follow-ups, referenced NHS colleagues — and did nothing.

This inaction took place while Polly and her children were recovering from sewer gas poisoning, battling immunocompromising conditions, and attempting to homeschool under harassment.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: Refusal to enforce adjustments despite confirmed diagnosis and stated risk

  • Human impact: Panic attacks, respiratory deterioration, educational disruption, retraumatisation

  • Power dynamics: Institutional neglect hidden behind polite tone and performative concern

  • Institutional failure: Staff permitted to acknowledge harm without duty to stop it

  • Unacceptable conduct: Tolerating medical harm under the illusion of professionalism

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because kind emails mean nothing if the harm continues.
Because silence in policy clothing is still silence.
Because Kirsty Hornal did not need to escalate to be abusive — she only had to do nothing while harm accrued.
Because this is what systemic discrimination often looks like: not malice, but inertia.
Not denial, but neglect.
Not shouting — just letting it happen.

This was the formal act of naming what the institution packaged as “support”: chronic inaction, dressed as care.

IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20 & 29 – failure to make or enforce reasonable adjustments

  • Children Act 1989, Section 17 – failure to protect welfare through inaction

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – indirect violation of family life through unremedied harm

  • Ombudsman Standards, Duty of Service – failure to act on repeated, substantiated risk notifications

  • Social Work England Standards, 3.1, 5.1 – neglect of health needs, avoidable harm through omission

V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept inaction as neutrality.
We do not accept performative kindness as compliance.
We do not accept that professionals may admit to harm — and still allow it.

This wasn’t miscommunication.
This was professional indifference.

This wasn’t benign neglect.
It was structured, delayed, and systemically enabled — and now, permanently documented.

Email submitting formal police report against Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown — forwarded to council complaints teams for the record

Email forwarding police report against two senior social workers for retaliation and harassment, sent to both borough complaint desks

I. What Happened

On 15 April 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted an email to Westminster and RBKC Children’s Services complaint inboxes. Attached was a police report naming Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown for repeated, coordinated acts of institutional retaliation, harassment, and discriminatory conduct.

The submission was forwarded with no introduction, no hedging, and no apology. The subject line said it all:
“Police Report for Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown.”

It was not a request for action. It was a declaration of record.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: Abuse of safeguarding process for retaliatory purposes

  • Human impact: Institutional intrusion, legal destabilisation, and emotional harm to children

  • Power dynamics: Social work used as a mechanism of silencing — backed by management hierarchy

  • Institutional failure: A system so accustomed to complaint that it routes police reports to customer service

  • Unacceptable conduct: Normalising surveillance, discrediting resistance, retaliating against legal redress

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because submitting a police report against two public servants should not feel like forwarding a broadband complaint.
Because the public must see what the state refuses to name: that retaliation is operational, not accidental.
Because the council’s inbox is not neutral. It is strategic.
Because when you file a police report and no one calls you back, the archive becomes your hotline.

SWANK documented this not to inform the public — but to outlive the silence that followed.

IV. Violations

  • Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, Sections 4A & 2 – harassment, alarm, and distress by public officials

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 26 & 27 – harassment and victimisation linked to disability and protected activity

  • Social Work England Professional Standards, 1.3, 3.1, 5.1 – discrimination, harm avoidance, and abuse of power

  • Children Act 1989, Section 17 – misuse of safeguarding powers to intimidate rather than protect

V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that customer service desks are neutral when violence wears a lanyard.
We do not accept that “retaliation” is too dramatic a word when the pattern fits the law.
We do not accept that institutional violence must be polite to be disqualifying.

This was not a miscommunication. This was strategy.
And SWANK has now timestamped it.

They Retaliated Under PLO — Now They Want a Home Visit for ‘Support’


⟡ “We’ve Retaliated Under PLO — Now Let’s Pretend It’s Just ‘Support’” ⟡
A legal dispute has been filed. The complaint has been logged. The retaliation is underway. But Westminster still wants to drop by — “just to help.”

Filed: 16 May 2025

Email from Sam Brown (Westminster) requesting an in-home Child in Need visit — despite ongoing legal proceedings, regulatory complaints, and a history of procedural abuse under the Public Law Outline.

I. What Happened

On 16 May 2025, Sam Brown, Deputy Service Manager at Westminster, sent a politely composed but structurally coercive email proposing a “Child in Need” (CIN) visit. The message:

  • Acknowledges the family's active legal case — but insists the CIN process is “separate”

  • Softens statutory pressure into language about “support” and “keeping in touch”

  • Offers a single-date appointment with no option for written-only substitution

  • Completely ignores prior communication boundaries and emotional harm

  • Treats safeguarding oversight as an unchallenged default, rather than a legally-contested threat

The result is a strategic shift in tone — from formal PLO retaliation to smiling statutory re-entry.

II. What the Document Establishes

  • Westminster is attempting to repackage PLO-level interference as CIN-level concern

  • Procedural overreach is now cloaked in language of “care”

  • Legal conflict is being consciously compartmentalised to justify continued presence

  • Disability adjustments (e.g. written-only communication) are being bypassed via format change

  • The same officials under regulatory complaint are still attempting contact

III. Why SWANK Filed It

This is not collaboration. It is administrative gaslighting. A statutory body accused of misconduct, currently under active complaint and judicial review, does not get to rebrand its interference as neutral “contact.” The letter reveals that Westminster is not standing down — they are changing uniform.

SWANK archived this document to:

  • Prove that post-PLO safeguarding activity continued under new names and justifications

  • Show how state actors use CIN to reinvade families under investigation

  • Expose the institutional refusal to honour trauma, legal boundaries, or reasonable accommodations

IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 – Sections 15, 20, 27 (disability discrimination, failure to adjust, victimisation)

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8 (family life), Article 6 (fair hearing), Article 14 (non-discrimination)

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 17 (misuse of CIN for surveillance, not support)

  • UNCRC – Article 23 (disabled family rights), Article 16 (protection from intrusion)

  • Social Work England Standards – Ethical boundary violations, disregard of active complaints

V. SWANK’s Position

Westminster’s safeguarding tactics have evolved — but not improved. A coercive visit under CIN is no less harmful than one under PLO. If anything, it is more insidious: it arrives under the banner of care while continuing to deny lived experience, legal protection, and accountability.

SWANK London Ltd. calls for:

  • A moratorium on all in-person visits while legal and regulatory proceedings are active

  • Written-only communication reinstated and honoured

  • Investigation into CIN misuse as a backchannel for procedural retaliation

⟡ Chromatic v Met Police: Midnight Isn’t Reasonable Adjustment ⟡


⟡ “The Police Came at 11PM. I Was Asleep. They Came Anyway.” ⟡
Email exchange documenting police visit to disabled mother’s home at night — and her formal objection to future in-person attendance

Filed: 14 April 2025

Email requesting statement handover to avoid in-person visits, citing disability, homeschooling, and surveillance safeguards

I. What Happened

On 14 April 2025, Polly Chromatic received a response from Detective Sergeant George Thorpe of the Metropolitan Police, confirming that PC Kirsty Russell was the investigating officer for her report. The reply followed Polly’s 12 April 2025 message raising serious concerns about an unannounced late-night police visit to her home, despite:

  • Her medically documented communication limitations

  • Her four children being asleep during home education hours

  • The existence of a pre-written statement to avoid verbal engagement

Polly politely requested that the statement be relayed to the attending officers and reiterated that, unless absolutely necessary, she does not consent to unplanned police visits due to medical, safety, and trauma-related reasons.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: Failure to respect disability-based written communication adjustment; late-night visit without notice

  • Human impact: Trauma exposure, sleep disruption, and heightened anxiety in a disabled household under harassment watch

  • Power dynamics: Attempted forced verbal interaction despite clear documented limits

  • Institutional failure: Ignoring previous documentation, disability status, and safeguarding boundaries

  • Unacceptable conduct: Treating written statements as insufficient solely because they do not offer real-time compliance

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because no one should be woken up at 11pm by the state.
Because there is no policy justification for showing up unannounced at the home of a disabled mother of four — when a statement was already provided.
Because the system will not acknowledge that written statements are not avoidance — they are accommodation.
Because this email is not about the event. It is about the expectation: that disabled people should still speak.

This archive entry is an act of quiet defiance — the kind that only appears after the doorbell rings too many times.

IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20 & 29 – failure to provide reasonable adjustments; disability discrimination in public service

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – unlawful intrusion into private life, especially during family rest hours

  • Code of Ethics – College of Policing, Standards 1 & 4 – respect for rights, integrity, and public trust

  • Public Sector Equality Duty (Section 149) – failure to anticipate and accommodate known disability needs

V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that officers can knock at 11PM with no explanation.
We do not accept that trauma, disability, or documented boundaries can be ignored for administrative convenience.
We do not accept that presence is proof of protection.

This wasn’t safeguarding.
This was state intrusion, veiled in politeness, carried out in silence, and now filed with fury.
