“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 Complaint They’ll File but Not Read

In re Chromatic v. Westminster & RBKC, Concerning the Ritualised Farce of Ofsted Notification and the Ethics of Bureaucratic Auto-Replies


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-EX-0624-OFSTED-RETALIATION
Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_Complaint_Ofsted_SafeguardingRetaliation_RBKC_Westminster
1-line summary: Formal complaint to Ofsted regarding safeguarding retaliation and procedural abuse, met with templated non-response.


I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal complaint to Ofsted detailing:

  • Coordinated safeguarding retaliation by Westminster and RBKC

  • Malicious obstruction of medical care

  • Procedural abuse through supervision threats and school registration

  • Disregard for disability, jurisdiction, and international protections

The response? A standard auto-email, warning against multiple emails and offering a potential “30-day reply window” for school matters.

Children were removed. Health care was disrupted. Retaliation was documented.
And Ofsted replied with a template.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That Ofsted is now on formal notice of safeguarding misconduct involving disabled children

  • That multiple institutions acted with collusion and impunity

  • That U.S. citizenship, asthma severity, and lawful objections were deliberately ignored

  • That harm escalated after legal filings — not before

Ofsted cannot say they didn’t know. They can only claim that knowing was not enough.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because in the modern complaint economy, submitting proof of harm is indistinguishable from subscribing to a newsletter.

Because this is not just evidence of misconduct — it’s evidence of how England’s regulatory bodies are structured to receive but not respond, to log but not act, to archive without consequence.

SWANK logs this exchange not in expectation of remedy — but to highlight the spectacle of institutional self-protection.


IV. Violations and Complicity

  • Safeguarding retaliation under full disability disclosure

  • Procedural obstruction under guise of concern

  • Jurisdictional abuse without oversight intervention

  • Administrative silence as a method of harm preservation

The Local Authority engaged in cruelty.
Ofsted responded with branding guidelines.


V. SWANK’s Position

This isn’t a complaint. It’s a record of moral failure.
Ofsted was notified.
Ofsted did not ask a question, request evidence, or indicate escalation.
They issued a receipt.

And so we issue this post — not to seek help, but to log the performative architecture of British accountability.

You may safeguard the paperwork.
We will safeguard the record.

In re Chromatic v. Parliamentary Health Ombudsman, On the Baroque Futility of Complaint Portals and Procedural Evasion

Maladministration in the Age of Apology Forms

In re Chromatic v. Parliamentary Health Ombudsman, On the Baroque Futility of Complaint Portals and Procedural Evasion


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-EX-0624-PHSO-COMPLAINT
Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_Complaint_PHSO_DisabilityDiscrimination_ProceduralRetaliation
1-line summary: Formal complaint to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman detailing systemic disability discrimination and retaliatory safeguarding obstruction.


I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic submitted a formal complaint to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO) regarding:

  • Disability discrimination

  • Medical sabotage

  • Institutional retaliation

  • Procedural denial of access to justice

The automated response offered forms, links, disclaimers, and waiting periods — the bureaucratic palliative for institutional collapse.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That the PHSO is aware of ongoing safeguarding retaliation tied to formal disability disclosures

  • That jurisdictional exclusions and ICO procedural breaches have been recorded as maladministration

  • That the U.S. citizenship of the children and their mother was ignored at critical points of intervention

  • That Westminster and NHS entities operated in defiance of oversight, yet with administrative protection

The PHSO is not a tribunal. It is a vault of polite delay.
But now it is on record.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because even an automated reply is a timestamped admission that a complaint has been raised.
Because once a body is aware of injustice — and does nothing — it becomes part of the harm.

SWANK does not log for remedy. It logs for history.
For audit. For public record. For the archive that will be read after the harm is complete and the silence no longer fashionable.


IV. Violations and Oversight Failures

  • Failure to acknowledge or intervene in retaliatory safeguarding actions

  • Disability discrimination via sustained disregard of medical documentation

  • Tolerance of jurisdictional evasion and child protection overreach

  • Operating complaint portals that do not respond to urgency, only structure

In short: the PHSO offered a template where a tribunal was required.


V. SWANK’s Position

This submission will not be buried. It will be read aloud in court, should it come to that.
Because when oversight bodies are complicit in silence, the record must grow louder than them.

SWANK London Ltd has submitted the complaint.
Now it awaits the silence — and logs that, too.

In re Chromatic v. Mullem, On the Posthumous Collection of Collusive Documents from a Former Solicitor Now Legally Deceased

Supervision Without Consent: The Retrieval of Paperwork and Power

In re Chromatic v. Mullem, On the Posthumous Collection of Collusive Documents from a Former Solicitor Now Legally Deceased


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-FR-0624-SUPORD-COLLECT
Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_Email_Mullem_SupervisionOrderCollection
1-line summary: Client formally terminated solicitor and requested return of supervision order documents for independent audit.


I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025, Polly Chromatic issued a formal directive to Alan Mullem — recently removed as solicitor and added as a named defendant in a multi-million pound civil claim — requesting the return of all supervision order documentsand related case materials.

The tone was not conciliatory. It was curatorial.

This was not a negotiation. It was an archival demand.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • Termination of legal representation with full clarity and cause

  • Demand for return of documents previously lodged with counsel

  • Separation of procedural compliance from corrupted legal association

  • Notification to multiple court addresses, creating full jurisdictional traceability

There is a reason museums reclaim looted artefacts.
There is a reason archivists do not trust their enemies with originals.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is not just paperwork.
This is evidence held hostage — by a solicitor who mocked disability claimsdismissed diplomatic jurisdiction, and refused to act when children were removed under false pretenses.

SWANK London Ltd records this act of reclamation as an assertion of post-representational sovereignty. When institutions rot, the paper must be retrieved.


IV. Violations and Symbolic Weight

  • Collusive legal counsel refusing to protect against unlawful supervision

  • Retention of client materials after termination

  • Failure to provide immediate access to filings that materially affect a family’s legal position

  • Attempt to withhold or delay evidentiary material that SWANK now reclaims as historical proof of judicial farce

A supervision order imposed without consent.
A solicitor who refused to intervene.
A mother who now reclaims her legal estate.


V. SWANK’s Position

This communication is not merely an email. It is a documented reversal of power.
SWANK London Ltd hereby asserts that all supervision documents handled by Mr. Mullem during his tenure are tainted by conflict, and are now repurposed not for legal continuity — but for legal critique.

Every page retrieved is a curtain lifted.
Every signature is a residue of complicity.

The supervision order has already failed.
Now we collect its debris — and catalogue the cowardice.

On the Fiction of Cooperation and the Impertinence of Counsel: A Note on Mr. Mullem’s Email

Dismissive Counsel, Diplomatic Oversight

In the Matter of Alan Mullem’s Contemptuous Reply to U.S. Jurisdictional Intervention


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-CF-0624-MULLEM-DISMISSAL

Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_Email_Mullem_Dismissal_USOversightAndDischarge

1-line summary: Solicitor dismisses U.S. Embassy involvement and disparages client strategy in safeguarding crisis


I. What Happened

On 24 June 2025 — one day after the unlawful seizure of four U.S. citizen children — solicitor Alan Mullem replied to a formal instruction from Polly Chromatic. She requested that he challenge a contact proposal issued by Westminster, which was offered during an active discharge and jurisdictional conflict.

Instead of advocacy, Mullem replied with contempt:

“You are being silly... The U.S. Embassy has no validity whatsoever...”

No legal basis. No protective strategy. No regard for consular oversight.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • Direct disrespect of client instruction

  • Disparagement of foreign diplomatic rights

  • Refusal to challenge unlawful contact proposals issued during a pending discharge motion

  • Subtextual alignment with Local Authority position — contradicting his duty of care

Mullem’s reply reveals a systemic problem: solicitors treating child removals as procedural irritants, not rights violations.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

This exchange represents a collapse of legal representation.
It captures how agents of the legal system not only fail to protect — but actively mock the mechanisms of protection (disability accommodations, foreign oversight, withdrawal of consent).

SWANK records this not merely for litigation, but to document how routine cruelty is disguised as legal pragmatism.


IV. Violations

  • Breach of professional duty (failure to act on instructions)

  • Disability disregard (refusal to assert protected health-based objections)

  • Jurisdictional denial (dismissing foreign oversight of foreign nationals)

  • Procedural collusion (silencing objections instead of filing them)

Mullem chose to insult, delay, and abandon — at a moment when international protections were most needed.


V. SWANK’s Position

SWANK London Ltd classifies this message as exemplary misconduct by counsel:
Not only did Mr. Mullem refuse to act, he mocked the lawful assertion of international and medical rights — dismissing the U.S. Embassy as “invalid” and characterising emergency litigation as “silly.”

This posture reflects a legal ecosystem in which children may be taken, but objections must be polite — or discarded.

His removal from the case was not only warranted — it was overdue.

On the Aromatics of Negligence: Thames Water and the Sewer Gas That Wasn't Worth Their Time

Effluence and Evasion: The Sewer Gas That Came With Silence

In the Matter of Thames Water, Miasmic Contempt, and the Indifference to Toxic Air


📎 Metadata

Filed: 7 July 2025
Reference Code: SWL-ENV-0624-THAMES-LEAK
Court File Name: 2025-06-24_SWANK_Complaint_ThamesWater_SewerGasMishandling
1-line summary: Thames Water ignored serious health hazard caused by prolonged sewer gas leak, despite formal complaint


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic filed a formal complaint to Thames Water regarding a chronic sewer gas leak at her residence, which triggered respiratory symptoms in multiple children and preceded a series of medical and institutional escalations.

The leak was not addressed with urgency. It was not acknowledged with consequence. Instead, a form-letter autoresponse was issued — the bureaucratic equivalent of spraying air freshener on a fire.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • Documented report of toxic exposure

  • Reference number issued: 32SMC0053422

  • Notification sent to CCW (Consumer Council for Water)

  • No active follow-up, inspection, or remediation initiated

This case reflects not only neglect, but institutional arrogance: the presumption that environmental illness can be administratively ignored into nonexistence.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because sewer gas is not symbolic — it is chemical.
Because silence from Thames Water created a domino effect of harm:
Respiratory crises. Hospital visits. Safeguarding misjudgments.
A health hazard became a social work case because no one from Thames Water could be bothered to care.

SWANK records the non-response as a root cause of procedural catastrophe. They let poison linger in the air — then shrugged at its consequences.


IV. Violations and Implications

  • Environmental neglect of a known toxic hazard

  • Failure to assess risk to minor children and medically vulnerable occupants

  • Breach of duty in responding to formal health-related complaints

  • Causal contribution to a downstream cascade of medical, educational, and legal destabilisation

Let it be noted: where the air was poisoned, the silence was deliberate.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is a case of evidentiary rot — both literal and legal.
Thames Water’s failure to respond meaningfully to a documented sewer gas leak places them not only in breach of environmental expectation, but in the direct causal chain of systemic collapse.

Every safeguarding overreach, every hospitalisation, every relocation and court intervention — began with air made dangerous and a utility company that treated oxygen as optional.
