“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

⟡ “My Health Is Not a Deferral Tactic. It’s a Statutory Right.” ⟡
A legally grounded letter correcting Westminster’s narrative: the issue is not non-engagement — the issue is their refusal to understand disability law.

Formal written response from Polly Chromatic (Noelle Meline) to Kirsty Hornal, affirming legal compliance with PLO via written-only communication, supported by medical documentation and statutory protection.


I. What Happened

In this letter, dated 23 April 2025, the claimant formally responds to Westminster Children’s Services’ attempts to reframe her disability-mandated communication format as “non-cooperation.” The letter asserts that written replies — submitted with complete evidence bundles on 15 April — are not only lawful, but medically necessary under the Equality Act 2010.

Key points include:

  • Confirmation that the claimant has fully complied with the PLO process

  • Reiteration that all communication must be written-only due to clinically documented conditions

  • Legal justification for recording social worker visits

  • Clarification that ongoing threats of escalation are discriminatory and procedurally inappropriate

The letter also affirms the claimant’s willingness to continue engagement — provided it aligns with medical limitations, legal protections, and basic human decency.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Written communication is not a preference — it is a medically validated, legally protected adjustment

  • The parent has complied with all PLO requests through written submissions, including video, educational records, and legal declarations

  • Mischaracterising medical adjustments as defiance is a breach of both law and ethics

  • Threats to escalate proceedings in response to lawful communication amount to procedural harassment

  • The family’s wellbeing is being actively endangered by Westminster’s refusal to adapt


III. Why SWANK Filed It

This is not just a letter — it is a strategic evidentiary shield. SWANK filed it to document how Westminster officials, faced with a clear legal adjustment, chose instead to diminish, distort, and deny. When the authority in charge of safeguarding refuses to safeguard the process itself, the danger does not come from the parent — it comes from the institution.

SWANK archived this letter to:

  • Establish written proof of full legal engagement

  • Highlight the coercive misuse of safeguarding frameworks when disability is present

  • Prepare grounds for regulatory complaints to Social Work England, EHRC, and the Ombudsman


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 – Section 20 (reasonable adjustments), Section 15 (discrimination arising from disability)

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

  • Social Work England Professional Standards – Ignoring communication boundaries, escalating unfairly

  • Children Act 1989 – Emotional harm via procedural mismanagement

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – Misrepresentation of lawful recording


V. SWANK’s Position

This letter stands as a model of procedural clarity, legal assertiveness, and trauma-informed resistance. Westminster Children’s Services is hereby placed on record: the law does not bend for bureaucratic convenience. A disabled parent invoking her rights is not evasive — she is simply not available for further abuse.

SWANK London Ltd. demands:

  • A written acknowledgment from WCC that written communication is the official and lawful format

  • Ceasefire on threats of non-compliance

  • A public audit of internal decision-making tied to PLO and disability engagement

⟡ “Three Officers. Three Case Numbers. One Investigation Too Late.” ⟡
Social Work England opens formal misconduct complaints into the leadership of Westminster Children’s Services — confirming what the evidence already proved.

Official email from Social Work England confirming active misconduct cases against Kirsty Hornal, Sarah Newman, and Sam Brown — now under formal triage review.


I. What Happened

On 28 April 2025, Social Work England (SWE) issued this triage confirmation email to Polly Chromatic. The message affirms that not one — but three separate case files have been opened against senior Westminster officers:

  • CON-9964 – Kirsty Hornal

  • CON-9965 – Sarah Newman

  • CON-9966 – Sam Brown

Each case corresponds to a separate complaint filed for:

  • Procedural abuse

  • Disability discrimination

  • PLO retaliation

  • Emotional harm

  • Factual misrepresentation

  • Regulatory neglect

This isn’t internal conflict. This is regulatory collapse in motion — confirmed.


II. What the Document Establishes

  • SWE acknowledges that all three complaints meet the triage threshold for formal review

  • Each named officer is under individual scrutiny, not grouped dismissal

  • Westminster’s top-tier safeguarding staff are now subject to external regulation

  • The timing aligns with PLO misuse, Equality Act breaches, and SWANK’s evidentiary archive

  • The Council’s claim of “support” is now publicly incompatible with active misconduct cases


III. Why SWANK Filed It

This document is a turning point. For months, SWANK recorded what Westminster denied: that harm was done, boundaries were crossed, and laws were broken. Now, Social Work England has agreed — at least enough to launch three case reviews. This isn’t vindication. It’s verification.

SWANK archived this email to:

  • Establish formal regulatory recognition of institutional misconduct

  • Validate the scope and seriousness of the original complaints

  • Position this moment as the official beginning of accountability — no longer theoretical, but procedural


IV. Violations Under Review

  • Equality Act 2010 – Disability discrimination, victimisation, failure to adjust

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Family life interference, fair process

  • Children Act 1989 – Emotional harm, misuse of safeguarding

  • Social Work England Professional Standards – Ethics, transparency, fairness, and accountability breaches

  • UK GDPR – Inaccurate or omitted data used to escalate statutory action


V. SWANK’s Position

The triage is just the beginning — but it proves everything that came before. When your complaints produce case numbers, your evidence becomes case law in waiting. Let no official ever again claim there was no merit, no harm, or no breach. This email proves: there were three.

SWANK London Ltd. calls for:

  • A full public update from SWE on the outcome of cases CON-9964 to CON-9966

  • Immediate suspension of the officers under investigation

  • Council-wide procedural reform in safeguarding escalation and PLO usage

⟡ Chromatic v SWE: The Archive Demands a Copy of Itself ⟡



⟡ “You Had Time to Ignore My Complaints. Now You Have 30 Days to Disclose Them.” ⟡
Formal Subject Access Request to Social Work England demanding all records related to complaints against Kirsty Hornal

Subject Access Request demanding full disclosure of Social Work England’s records concerning complaints filed by Polly Chromatic against Kirsty Hornal


I. What Happened

On 8 April 2025, Polly Chromatic issued a formal Subject Access Request (SAR) to Social Work England (SWE)under the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. The request demands:

  • All internal documents, assessments, and decisions relating to complaints filed against Kirsty Hornal

  • All emails or correspondence where Polly is named or referenced

  • Full access to decision-making rationale, risk assessments, and refusal criteria

  • Disclosure of the mechanisms used to determine why her complaints were not escalated

The SAR was submitted following SWE’s ongoing failure to investigate well-documented professional misconduct, and serves as a pre-litigation evidence sweep for both Judicial Review and regulator complaint escalation.


II. What the Request Establishes

  • Regulatory opacity: SWE failed to provide procedural clarity regarding why Hornal’s misconduct was never investigated

  • Documentation disparity: The archive is full — but SWE’s files have been withheld

  • Data rights: Legal entitlement to know how the regulator discussed, dismissed, or delayed critical safeguarding concerns

  • Institutional contradiction: Transparency is policy — except when the social worker is protected

  • Power inversion: This SAR flips the dynamic — from subject to sovereign


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because when regulators pretend not to see, you force them to read.
Because SWE can’t claim “insufficient grounds” while refusing to show their own grounds.
Because if they had time to ignore a year’s worth of documentation, they now have 30 days to account for that silence — in writing.

This SAR is not just an inquiry. It’s a jurisdictional demand.
And the archive will not wait politely.


IV. Violations (If Not Fulfilled)

  • UK GDPR, Articles 12 & 15 – right to access personal data and obtain confirmation of processing

  • Data Protection Act 2018, Sections 45–54 – noncompliance with subject access obligations

  • Equality Act 2010, if refusal linked to disability status or complaint origin

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – right to informational privacy and family protection


V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that Social Work England gets to say “no case to answer” without showing what was asked.
We do not accept that silence is transparency.
We do not accept that safeguarding retaliation can be documented, and still dismissed, without scrutiny.

This is a records request.
It is also a countdown.
Day one has begun.

Formal rebuttal to Westminster’s PLO letter, dismantling safeguarding claims point by point and exposing retaliatory motive

Response to PLO letter issued by Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown, asserting disability rights and addressing each safeguarding claim with precision


I. What Happened

On 15 April 2025, Polly Chromatic issued a formal rebuttal to Westminster’s PLO pre-proceedings letter dated 14 April 2025. The original letter was signed by Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown, despite:

  • No prior disclosure of a completed Child in Need outcome

  • Ongoing retaliation following police reports filed by Polly

  • Repeated, documented violations of her disability access rights

The PLO allegations — from educational concern to false claims of erratic behaviour — were systematically dismantled in this written reply, which also reaffirmed Polly’s legal position under the Equality Act 2010Children Act 1989, and Human Rights Act 1998.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: Escalation without closing documentation or transparent threshold rationale

  • Human impact: Severe deterioration in health from repeated verbal demands, trauma escalation, and harassment

  • Power dynamics: Safeguarding invoked not for safety — but in retaliation for lawful resistance

  • Institutional failure: Ignoring clear evidence and prior internal acknowledgements in order to justify surveillance

  • Unacceptable conduct: Recasting educational success and medical silence as risk indicators


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because every allegation in this PLO was addressed — with documents, video, and law.
Because the very same department that cited homeschooling as concern had praised it in writing.
Because sewer gas, asthma, and abuse history were not facts to be addressed — they were tools to be inverted.
Because the safeguarding logic wasn’t logic. It was leverage.

This post is not a rebuttal. It’s an archive of refusal — to be intimidated, pathologised, or erased.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20, 21, 27 – denial of communication accommodations; retaliatory safeguarding

  • Children Act 1989, Section 17 – failure to promote well-being; misapplication of escalation

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Articles 6 & 8 – procedural unfairness; interference with family and private life

  • Social Work England Standards, 3.1, 5.1 – institutional harm; discriminatory process management


V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that PLO letters can substitute for fact.
We do not accept that silence caused by medical need is “non-engagement.”
We do not accept that disability, once disclosed, can be used as pretext for escalation.

This wasn’t risk management.
It was reputation defense masquerading as child protection.
And now, it is timestamped — by the one who refused to play along.

Judicial Review pre-action outline challenging retaliatory PLO issued by Westminster and RBKC following police complaint and failure to disclose outcome

Outline of legal challenge against RBKC and Westminster for unlawful safeguarding escalation, disability discrimination, and data protection breach


I. What Happened

On 23 April 2025, Polly Chromatic prepared a formal Judicial Review Pre-Action Letter Outline, instructing her solicitor to initiate proceedings against the Director of Children’s Services for RBKC and Westminster. The proposed claim challenges a PLO letter dated 14 April 2025, issued by Kirsty Hornal and approved by Sam Brown, despite:

  • No safeguarding concerns after a full year of investigation

  • No final report or explanation of any findings

  • A police report filed by the claimant weeks earlier regarding misconduct

  • Repeated disregard for disability accommodations

The escalation to PLO was framed as retaliatory, procedurally flawed, and incompatible with domestic and human rights law.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Procedural breaches: PLO invoked without final assessment; data withheld; retaliatory timing

  • Human impact: Physical illness, psychiatric distress, deterioration in trust and stability

  • Power dynamics: Misuse of statutory authority to punish protected acts — especially police complaints

  • Institutional failure: Breakdown of communication, documentation, and proportionality

  • Unacceptable conduct: Conflation of compliance with submission; medical silence repackaged as risk


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because a PLO without an outcome report is not legal process — it’s institutional gaslighting.
Because when you file a police report and receive a PLO letter weeks later, that’s not coincidence. It’s code red.
Because safeguarding is not supposed to function as reprisal.
And because this filing makes it clear: disability isn’t risk. It’s a right — and rights don’t expire when the council feels threatened.

This isn’t a PLO challenge. It’s a declaration of war on retaliatory bureaucracy.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989, Section 47 – escalation without lawful evidence or procedural integrity

  • Equality Act 2010, Sections 20, 21, 27, 149 – discrimination, failure to adjust, and retaliation for protected activity

  • Human Rights Act 1998, Article 8 – interference with private and family life via unjustified statutory action

  • Data Protection Act 2018, Sections 45–54 – unlawful withholding of outcome documents

  • Common Law Public Law Principles – breach of legitimate expectation and proportionality


V. SWANK’s Position

We do not accept that filing a police report is grounds for safeguarding escalation.
We do not accept that silence is neglect when the silence is medical.
We do not accept that the absence of findings can be used as justification for further scrutiny.

This was not lawful child protection.
It was revenge policy in a PLO envelope.
And SWANK will litigate it line by line, citation by citation, archive by archive.
