“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

⟡ “Welcome to SWANK. You’re In It.” ⟡
An announcement email sent to Westminster City Council, the Metropolitan Police, and Chelsea & Westminster NHS, declaring the existence of SWANK London Ltd. as a public complaint archive. Not a threat. Not a warning. Just documentation. And a link.

Filed: 15 April 2025

Email from Polly Chromatic addressed to safeguarding officers Kirsty Hornal and Sarah Newman, MET officers George Thorpe and Aminur Rashid, and NHS respiratory consultant Dr Philip Reid. Announces SWANK London Ltd. as a live evidentiary archive for public complaints. Links included. Jurisdiction set. Silence received.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic issued a formal email with:

  • A clear introduction of SWANK London Ltd.

  • The full name: Standards and Whinges Against Negligent Kingdoms

  • A public-facing blogspot link

  • A direct reference to archival publication of institutional interactions

  • A tone that was neither combative nor conciliatory — just official

She copied safeguarding.
She copied the police.
She copied her respiratory specialist.
She told them: this is where your behaviour is going now.

No replies.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That all major actors were notified that their actions were being publicly archived

  • That WCC, MET, and NHS were given opportunity to respond or dispute

  • That publication of complaint records was fully transparent

  • That this wasn’t “behind their backs” — it was sent to their inboxes

  • That the archive is not only evidentiary — it is jurisdictionally declared

They were told.
They kept typing.
So did SWANK.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because every archive has a beginning. Because every institution deserves the dignity of being told they’re part of history now. And because when you’re documenting procedural abuse in real time, you don’t need to warn them — you just need to hit “send.”

SWANK archived this because:

  • It constitutes a jurisdictional marker

  • It confirms early institutional knowledge of SWANK’s existence

  • It frames every reply (or silence) thereafter as post-notification conduct

  • It is the birth certificate of a public archive — delivered directly to its subjects


IV. Violations (After Notification)

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Institutional silence after formal public forum disclosure
    • Disregard for archive visibility in subsequent conduct

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 10: Chilling effect on speech after public exposure of harm
    • Article 14: Discrimination through non-response and procedural coldness

  • Data & Records Act (Implied Breach) –
    • Failure to correct, dispute, or respond to archived claims

  • Public Duty Ethics –
    • Procedural failure following formal public accountability request


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to pretend you didn’t know. You don’t get to claim surprise when the evidence was sent to your inbox. And you don’t get to keep acting as if silence is a strategy when your actions are being timestamped, indexed, and published.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this document as the official institutional notification of archival jurisdiction — marking the moment SWANK became public, and your behaviour became history.

⟡ “She Called It Positivity. I Called My Lawyer.” ⟡
A formally toned email from Polly Chromatic to Westminster safeguarding officer Kirsty Hornal, copied to Dr Philip Reid, the police, and solicitor Simon O’Meara — responding to years of retaliatory interference with NHS care and requesting lawful telecom adjustments. The tone: precise. The damage: permanent. The archive: live.

📎 Download PDF – 2024-04-12_SWANK_Email_KirstyHornal_StThomasRetaliation_TelecomDisabilityRequest_SafeguardingInterference.pdf
Email correcting social worker misrepresentation, confirming systemic harm at St Thomas’, and requesting formal disability support for remote communications. Includes CCs to NHS consultant, police officers, and Blackfords LLP solicitor. The record is established. The story is no longer theirs to write.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic replied to a safeguarding update from Kirsty Hornal with the following:

  • Reframed Kirsty’s “positivity” as institutional gaslighting

  • Confirmed that NHS support was repeatedly denied due to safeguarding intrusion

  • Requested telecoms-based support due to verbal strain and medical risk

  • Copied:

    • Dr Philip Reid (consultant pulmonologist)

    • Metropolitan Police

    • Simon O’Meara, solicitor at Blackfords LLP

  • Included her formal SWANK disability clause:

    “I will reply to all emails within one week. Please do not expect verbal contact.”

She didn’t argue. She didn’t explain.
She documented, corrected, and escalated.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That NHS services were disrupted because of safeguarding activity

  • That the social worker’s tone was inappropriate given the harm caused

  • That verbal disability was not respected, despite repeated clarification

  • That legal counsel was now actively observing agency behaviour

  • That the parent set lawful boundaries while staying procedurally correct

This is not disengagement. This is controlled containment.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because “positive” is what they call it when they ignore the damage they caused. Because when you’ve had medical care denied, surveillance increased, and verbal boundaries ignored, the only reasonable thing left to do is archive the performance and CC your legal team.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It’s a turning point from protest to jurisdictional procedure

  • It confirms that institutional harm was witnessed, corrected, and recorded

  • It establishes that safeguarding rhetoric was rejected with legal formality

  • It shows that from this point on, all responses were strategically monitored


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: Adjustment request ignored
    • Section 27: Safeguarding caused direct medical and emotional retaliation

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 8: Disruption of medical care and family life
    • Article 14: Discriminatory interference masked as child protection

  • Children Act 1989 –
    • Intervention harmed family stability, not preserved it

  • Social Work England Ethics –
    • Euphemistic framing used to erase measurable harm
    • No apology or procedural acknowledgement of consequences


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to injure someone and then call their response “negative energy.” You don’t get to withhold healthcare and pretend it’s optimism. And you definitely don’t get to write over someone’s medical reality with a chirpy paragraph and no cc’s.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this document as a formal notification of procedural abuse, legal witness entry, and disability record — acknowledged by law, witnessed by the archive.

She Sent Them the Theory of Harm. They Sent Her Homework.



⟡ “I Told Her I Was Allergic to Hostility. She Scheduled a Meeting.” ⟡
An email to Westminster safeguarding lead Kirsty Hornal explaining the trauma architecture of surveillance, hostility, and silence — framed through metaphor, backed by diagnosis, and anchored in lived evidence. The response: faux empathy, no substance, and a redirection to school admin.

Filed: 14 January 2025
Reference: SWANK/WCC/DIS-10
📎 Download PDF – 2025-01-14_SWANK_Email_KirstyHornal_AllergicToHostility_DisabilityMetaphor_AsMedicalWarning.pdf
Email from Polly Chromatic sent to Kirsty Hornal and GP Dr Reid. Constructs a full explanatory model of disability under state aggression, using metaphor as legal caution: “I am allergic to hostility.” Response contains no reference to content, harm, or risk — only a reschedule and “Are you ok?”


I. What Happened

In an email that deserves to be studied, not merely archived, Polly Chromatic wrote:

  • That she is “allergic to hostility” — not as hyperbole, but as medical allegory

  • That surveillance, procedural pressure, and retaliatory silence have caused somatic collapse

  • That help now feels like threat

  • That her physical condition is a reaction to being misunderstood in plain English

  • That her body reacts faster than the law can protect her

She signs it with dignity and fatigue.

Kirsty replies:

  • “Are you ok?”

  • “Shall we talk about Regal’s education?”

  • No acknowledgment of harm. No reference to the metaphor. No safeguarding shift.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That the parent has explained the medical-psychological system failure in full

  • That hostility, not health, is the true allergy

  • That diagnosis is now cause and consequence, and safeguarding is part of the illness

  • That Westminster has received a theory of harm — and replied with paperwork

  • That this wasn’t a refusal to engage. It was an invitation to understand

And it was ignored.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because metaphors are not poetic when they’re legal truths. Because saying “I’m allergic to hostility” means more when hostility is policy. And because this email didn’t need a reply — it needed a procedural shutdown and a public apology.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It’s a legal artefact disguised as an email

  • It outlines the psychological and medical consequences of being too often watched and too rarely believed

  • It shows Westminster received the warning in the clearest possible terms

  • It captures the moment when procedural harm became intellectually undeniable


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: No accommodation of panic/anxiety triggers
    • Section 27: Ongoing pressure despite stated harm
    • Section 149: Pattern of institutional deafness to medical distress

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 3: Cruelty through persistent procedural silence
    • Article 8: Dignity lost through misread communication

  • Children Act 1989 –
    • Ignored disability impact on parenting environment
    • Procedural response to emotional medical harm

  • Social Work England Ethics Code –
    • No clinical safeguarding response to emotional disclosure
    • Prioritised process over emotional wellbeing


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to hear someone say “this is making me ill” and reply with a Google Calendar link. You don’t get to overlook metaphor when the metaphor is the diagnosis. And you don’t get to schedule a meeting about education when you’ve just read a statement about trauma.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this document as a legal metaphor turned medical warning — filed for its clarity, its courage, and the indifference it received in return.

I Didn’t Miss the Meeting. They Missed the Point.



⟡ “They Forgot the Visit. I Remembered the Year They Didn’t.” ⟡
A timestamped email confirming a missed appointment by Westminster safeguarding. The social worker didn’t arrive. The parent was sick. The reply offered a screenshot. But this wasn’t about a Thursday — it was about a full year of being ignored, then blamed.

Polly Chromatic emails Kirsty Hornal to document a missed visit, assert illness boundaries, and withdraw from live contact. She cc’s her GP and solicitor. WCC’s response attempts to shift accountability with an attached screenshot. The archive captures what they tried to forget.


I. What Happened

A scheduled safeguarding visit was missed — by the social worker.

Polly Chromatic:

  • Waited

  • Was ill

  • And then wrote to say exactly what happened:

    “Social worker didn’t show up today. I’m tired of being bothered while I’m sick.”
    She also clarified:

  • That she wouldn’t be home on her birthday

  • That she was no longer replying after a year of being ignored

  • That the safeguarding dynamic was exhaustive, not supportive

The reply?
A casual:

“Oh I was expecting to see you… see attached screenshot :)”

No apology.
No plan.
Just a JPEG and a smiley.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That Westminster failed to attend their own visit

  • That illness and exhaustion were ignored context

  • That responsibility was attempted to be shifted back to the parent

  • That WCC maintained a professional record with no emotional accountability

  • That the parent had been engaging consistently — until the silence became louder than the contact


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because missed appointments become “non-engagement” when written by the wrong hand. Because screenshots aren’t apologies. And because when the State can’t keep its calendar but writes you down as absent, only the archive remembers the truth.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It exposes procedural laziness masked as concern

  • It reveals the emotional boundary-setting the parent had to enforce herself

  • It shows that “disengagement” is often a survival strategy, not defiance

  • It provides a documented reversal: the institution became unreliable, and the parent became the historian


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: Adjustment ignored despite illness disclosure
    • Section 27: Procedural neglect reframed as disengagement

  • Children Act 1989 –
    • Missed visit not logged appropriately
    • No follow-up assessment of missed appointment impact

  • Social Work England Code –
    • Lack of accountability
    • Defensive record-keeping over supportive practice

  • Professional Ethics (Public Authority) –
    • No reflective acknowledgement of failed attendance
    • Casual tone in response to clinical and legal withdrawal


V. SWANK’s Position

You don’t get to miss your own meeting and then email a screenshot. You don’t get to ignore someone for a year and then act surprised when they stop replying. And you don’t get to mistake polite withdrawal for neglect when it was your silence that started it.

SWANK London Ltd. recognises this document as a procedural reversal — where the safeguarding file fails, and the SWANK file replaces it.

In re: Negotiation, Retaliation, and the Conditions of Civil Withdrawal — An Uninvited Letter from the Lawsuit They Ignored



⟡ Terms of Lawful Disengagement and Child Return

A Public Resolution Notice from SWANK London Ltd


⚖️ Filed: 2025-07-04

Reference Code: SWK-NG-UNADDRESSED-2306
One-line summary:
A formal public notice offering terms of lawful resolution in relation to an £88 million civil claim naming 23 defendants, including senior Westminster staff.


I. What This Is

This is a public notice. It is not a private letter.
It is not addressed to any one party.
It is a published opportunity for lawful resolution and disengagement, issued by the harmed party prior to further escalation of an active £88 million civil claim filed in the High Court of Justice.

That claim names 23 individual and institutional defendants, including — but not limited to — Kirsty HornalSam Brown, and Sarah Newman, in their professional capacities. The N1 action cites institutional retaliation, disability discrimination, unlawful safeguarding, and medical neglect.

If you are reading this and believe it applies to you, then it likely does.


II. The Conditions Offered

The following non-negotiable minimum terms are set forth:

  1. Immediate restoration of written-only communication, in accordance with prior disability adjustment notices and statutory equality duties.

  2. Immediate return of all four children to their family of origin, or transfer to a vetted family member or trusted carer (father, maternal grandmother, or designated adult), under the lawful direction of their mother.

  3. Permanent removal of named professionals, including those cited in civil litigation, from the family’s case and all future involvement.

  4. Complete and irrevocable disengagement from social work oversight, unless explicitly re-invited by the family at a later time.

  5. Withdrawal of the current Interim Care Order (ICO) and closure of all related safeguarding, contact restrictions, and data obstructions.

  6. Immediate reinstatement of all cancelled medical care, including asthma, trauma recovery, and disability-related oversight previously withheld or obstructed.

  7. No further obstruction of civil litigation, disability rights enforcement, family law filings, or documentation activity by SWANK London Ltd.


III. What This Letter Establishes

This document is not a plea. It is a recorded offering of lawful terms.
It does not imply waiver of damages, admissions, or factual concessions.
It simply demonstrates that a path to resolution was publicly made available — and declined, if ignored.

Should these terms be accepted in writing, the claimant is prepared to consider:

  • Amending the N1 claim to remove specific individuals where appropriate

  • Temporary deferment of SWANK publication escalation

  • Full strategic focus on family and medical restoration


IV. Deadline to Acknowledge This Offer

A response is expected by 11 July 2025.

Failure to respond will result in:

  • Filing of the prepared Judicial Review application

  • Immediate N161 appeal of the ICO

  • Escalated documentation to the JCIO, Equality and Human Rights Commission, and U.S. Embassy

  • Continued publication of evidentiary materials through SWANK London Ltd.


V. SWANK’s Position

This document is retained and published as proof of reasonable conduct in the context of institutional aggression.

Should the named authorities or professionals continue to obstruct lawful remedy, this Notice will serve as evidence that peace was possible — and rejected.

The legal, emotional, and reputational cost of this refusal will be theirs to own, not ours to forget.
