“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

Polly Chromatic v Westminster: Statement of Fact on Family Status and Institutional Retaliation



⟡ “You Fabricated a Narrative to Justify Retaliation. Here Are the Facts.” ⟡
When the State Doesn’t Like Being Audited, It Labels the Auditor Unfit — Then Calls That Safeguarding.

Filed: 23 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/WESTMINSTER/STATEMENT-OF-FACT-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-23_SWANK_StatementOfFact_Westminster_RetaliationAndFamilyStatus.pdf
Formal declaration refuting false safeguarding narratives and confirming Westminster's retaliatory conduct following legal action and audits.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal Statement of Fact to legal counsel, Westminster Council, and multiple regulatory bodies. The letter rebuts fabricated allegations levied against her by Westminster Children’s Services in the wake of a Judicial Review, a £23 million civil claim, and a criminal referral naming key personnel. The document asserts her family status, challenges defamatory assumptions, and documents a clear timeline of retaliatory acts disguised as safeguarding. The archive classifies this as a defensive declaration — not against misconduct, but against fiction.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The parent is a single carer with no substance misuse or partner involvement

  • The father, based in Turks and Caicos, was excluded due to linguistic discrimination

  • Westminster has circulated false narratives in response to published audits

  • Retaliatory actions were taken within 24–48 hours of legal filings

  • Misconduct is being disguised as professional concern

This wasn’t about child welfare. It was a reputational erasure campaign performed in institutional grammar.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the truth must be louder than the smear.
Because legal filings should not trigger safeguarding visits unless safeguarding was never the point.
Because a parent with documentation is not dangerous — they’re just inconvenient.
Because when social workers start behaving like defendants, the archive takes notes.
Because rebuttal is not just a right — it is a record.


IV. Violations

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – Malicious fabrication and misrepresentation of personal information

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20 & 27 – Victimisation and failure to accommodate

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – Family life breached by unfounded intrusion

  • UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities – Institutional retaliation against a disabled whistleblower

  • Public Law Principles – Abuse of authority for retaliatory rather than protective purposes


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t a safeguarding response. It was a character assassination under public duty letterhead.
This wasn’t concern. It was a strategy to discredit, not to defend.
This wasn’t lawful. It was institutional ego wrapped in referral form logic.

SWANK files this statement as an act of jurisdictional correction.
Let no future tribunal say "we weren’t told."
We were not hiding. They were erasing.

Polly Chromatic v Westminster: Supervision Order Delivered Without Disability Accommodation



⟡ “You Knew I Was Disabled. You Ignored That. Then You Came to My Door With Court Orders.” ⟡
Access Is Not a Courtesy. It’s a Statutory Requirement — Which You Violated With a Smile.

Filed: 23 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/FAMCOURT/EQUALITYBREACH-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-23_SWANK_Complaint_DisabilityViolation_SupervisionOrderNoAccommodation.pdf
Formal documentation of rights violations relating to court communications and supervision order delivery made without disability accommodations.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal complaint documenting Westminster Children’s Services’ deliberate delivery of a supervision order directly to her home — despite being repeatedly and formally notified that she is medically unable to receive verbal or in-person communication due to eosinophilic asthma, muscle dysphonia, and complex PTSD. The Family Court also failed to provide access accommodations, effectively excluding her from participation. No solicitor notice. No written advance. No compliance with stated and documented medical access needs.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • All relevant parties were on written notice of documented disabilities and required adjustments

  • A supervision order was hand-delivered in violation of communication protocols

  • No prior email, written confirmation, or solicitor engagement was made

  • The Family Court provided no accessible route to participate or respond

  • The incident caused a documented physical and psychological episode

This wasn’t a breakdown. It was a deliberate choice to override the law in favour of perceived efficiency.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because disability rights are not suspended when court orders are involved.
Because “We didn’t think about that” is not a defence — it’s an admission.
Because when the Family Court collaborates in excluding a disabled litigant, it stops being a neutral forum.
Because accommodation is not a favour. It’s a duty. And what they delivered wasn’t law — it was trauma, hand-delivered.
Because retaliation cloaked in paperwork is still retaliation.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – Failure to make reasonable adjustments for disability

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 6 – Denial of fair hearing due to exclusion

  • Children Act 1989 – Misuse of supervisory authority in disregard of procedural fairness

  • Equal Treatment Bench Book (Judiciary of England and Wales) – Judicial duties to accommodate disability

  • UNCRPD Articles 5, 9, and 13 – Failure to ensure equal access to justice and communication


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t court communication. It was access sabotage.
This wasn’t legal process. It was deliberate institutional invalidation.
This wasn’t negligence. It was a rehearsed breach of disability law — by design, not accident.

SWANK files this document as a declaration:
The next time they say "We weren’t aware," we will point to this — timestamped, filed, and archived.
Not only were they aware. They delivered the breach to our door.

Polly Chromatic v Social Work England: The Complaint Was Urgent — The Response Was Robotic



⟡ “We Received Your Complaint About Professional Misconduct. This Is an Auto-Response.” ⟡
Safeguarding Is Urgent. Processing Your Concern Is Not.

Filed: 23 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/SWE/AUTO-RESPONSE-FAILURE
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-23_SWANK_Response_SocialWorkEngland_DoNotReplyAutoNotice.pdf
Auto-generated reply from Social Work England following formal referral of three officials accused of criminal safeguarding misconduct.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Polly Chromatic filed a formal referral with Social Work England regarding misconduct by three named officials at Westminster Children’s Services. The referral cited unlawful removal of four children, failure to accommodate disability, and retaliation for lawful legal action. In return, Social Work England responded with an automated message containing no reference to the complaint, no case number, and no acknowledgment of urgency — just a warning not to follow up.


II. What the Auto-Reply Establishes

  • There is no triage mechanism for urgent safeguarding-based referrals

  • The language used prioritises administrative workflow over child welfare

  • The regulator disclaims responsibility for safeguarding despite being the fitness-to-practise authority

  • The email does not confirm receipt, assign a reference, or acknowledge the content of the concern

  • Structural indifference is digitally templated — and institutionally endorsed

This was not a response. It was an autoresponder programmed for reputational insulation.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when your complaint concerns criminal abuse of power and your reply is "please don’t send more emails," the problem isn’t volume — it’s values.
Because institutions now operate with inboxes, not consciences.
Because no parent should have to prove that retaliation occurred and that it matters to the regulator.
Because the moment a regulator automates dismissal, they have automated complicity.
Because this message didn’t say "we’re reviewing" — it said don’t disrupt our delay.


IV. Violations

  • Social Work England Statutory Responsibilities – Failure to engage with public protection concerns

  • Children Act 1989 – Refusal to respond to live safeguarding dispute involving four minors

  • Equality Act 2010 – Implicit procedural discrimination through inaccessible redress

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 13 – Right to effective remedy

  • Data and Procedural Transparency Regulations – Lack of complaint confirmation or tracking


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t communication. It was an institutional reflex of deferral.
This wasn’t administration. It was protocol used to avoid proximity to the harmed.
This wasn’t delay. It was a message from within the system: “you are interrupting us by surviving.”

SWANK does not treat auto-replies as harmless.
We treat them as exhibits.
This wasn’t silence. It was mechanised indifference — and we logged it.

Polly Chromatic v Hornal, Brown, Newman: Referral for Professional Misconduct and Criminal Abuse of Safeguarding Powers



⟡ “Their Professional Title Was ‘Safeguarding.’ Their Actual Conduct Was Retaliation.” ⟡
Not Misjudgment. Misuse. Not Error. Pattern. Not Isolated. Institutional.

Filed: 23 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/SWE/CONDUCT-REFERRAL-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-23_SWANK_Referral_SocialWorkEngland_CriminalConductAndFitnessReview.pdf
Referral to Social Work England seeking professional conduct investigation into three Westminster social workers following unlawful removals.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal referral to Social Work England concerning three senior officials at Westminster Children’s Services. The complaint follows the removal of four U.S. citizen children from their home on 22 June 2025 — an act carried out without lawful threshold, judicial oversight, or disability access accommodations. The referral identifies Kirsty Hornal, Samuel Brown, and Sarah Newman by name, and cites retaliatory escalation, discriminatory exclusion of the children’s non-English-speaking father, and medical interference as core elements of misconduct.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Safeguarding powers were weaponised in response to legal audits and complaints

  • A disabled parent was denied access to proceedings and written-only accommodations

  • Four children were removed with no prior service, threshold, or medical transition plan

  • The father, based overseas, received communication in a language he does not speak

  • Multiple formal communications were ignored in breach of duty

This wasn’t poor performance. It was institutionally sanctioned malice under a child protection brand.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because social work licenses do not grant the right to retaliate.
Because retaliation in response to legal process is not discretion — it is corruption.
Because safeguarding should not be a weapon used against the disabled, the foreign, or the informed.
Because silence from a public body is not a neutral act — it is a calculated position.
Because professionalism, when used to conceal abuse, becomes complicity with the state.


IV. Violations

  • Social Work England Professional Standards – Integrity, accountability, and legal compliance breached

  • Children Act 1989, Sections 31 and 47 – Unlawful removal without process

  • Equality Act 2010 – Discrimination by omission and failure to accommodate

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6, 8, 14 – No fair hearing; family life infringed; discrimination

  • UNCRC, Articles 3, 9, 24 – Removal without consultation; disruption of medical care

  • Safeguarding Protocols and Ethical Conduct Codes – Violated in letter and spirit


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t misconduct. It was institutional retribution executed through the veneer of concern.
This wasn’t a safeguarding decision. It was a punitive response to lawful oversight.
This wasn’t a lapse. It was premeditated governance by exclusion.

SWANK refers this conduct not merely as a breach — but as a jurisdictional fracture.
When social workers become gatekeepers to state violence, we do not redact their names —
we archive them.

Polly Chromatic v Westminster: EHRC Complaint for Disability-Based Removal and Linguistic Erasure



⟡ “They Ignored My Disability. They Bypassed My Language. Then They Took My Children.” ⟡
Discrimination Was Not a Side Effect — It Was the Structure.

Filed: 23 June 2025
Reference: SWANK/EHRC/COMPLAINT-01
📎 Download PDF – 2025-06-23_SWANK_Complaint_EHRC_DisabilityLanguageFamilyRightsBreach.pdf
Formal complaint to the Equality and Human Rights Commission alleging disability discrimination, linguistic exclusion, and family rights violations by Westminster Council.


I. What Happened

On 23 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal rights complaint to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC). The complaint outlines how Westminster Children’s Services orchestrated the removal of her four U.S. citizen children while disregarding every known disability accommodation — including her legal right to written-only communication due to muscle dysphonia and PTSD. The Council also contacted the children’s Haitian Kreyòl-speaking father in English, denying him the opportunity to participate. Medical care was disrupted. No judicial order was presented. All institutional protections were disabled — except the ones protecting the council from accountability.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • The parent’s communication needs were repeatedly ignored despite documented disability

  • The removal occurred with no judicial transparency and no process

  • The father was denied access due to a language barrier Westminster knew existed

  • The children’s medical treatment was disrupted without consultation or cause

  • The incident reflects a pattern of discriminatory safeguarding misuse and systemic retaliation

This was not a failure to accommodate. It was a denial of personhood in policy format.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because accessibility is not conditional on the council’s convenience.
Because multilingualism is not a barrier — but ignoring it is.
Because safeguarding weaponised against the disabled is not protection — it’s persecution.
Because this wasn’t a misstep. It was a mapped route through institutional neglect.
Because SWANK is not a documentation project — it is a record of what was deliberately erased.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20, 21, and 29 – Failure to make reasonable adjustments; indirect discrimination

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6, 8, and 14 – No fair hearing; breach of family life; discriminatory exclusion from rights

  • Children Act 1989 – Unlawful removal without hearing or due process

  • UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Articles 3, 9, 12, 24 – Best interests, separation, participation, health

  • CRPD (Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities) – Denial of communication-based access


V. SWANK’s Position

This wasn’t safeguarding. It was systemic disablement of rights and recognition.
This wasn’t neglect. It was discrimination structured as protocol.
This wasn’t failure. It was the function working exactly as designed.

SWANK files this complaint not to request justice — but to mark the absence of it.
We do not submit rights complaints. We issue indictments in archive format.
This wasn’t accidental. It was institutional choreography — and we logged every step.
