“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

Chromatic v Westminster: On the Institutionalisation of Psychological Abuse through Retaliatory Foster Design



๐Ÿ’  SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue ๐Ÿ’ 

✒️ Filed: 2 August 2025 | Ref Code: WCC-PLACEMENT-CRIMINAL-FAILURE | PDF: 2025-08-02_SWANK_FosterPlacement_CriminalReassessmentRequest.pdf

๐Ÿ”น Immediate Reassessment of Foster Placement

On the Subject of Criminal Risk, Mockery by Carers, and the Uncorrected Entrapment of American Children


I. What Happened

On 2 August 2025, Polly Chromatic issued an emergency criminal safeguarding notice to Sarah Newman, Executive Director of Westminster Children’s Services, demanding the immediate removal of all four U.S. citizen children from their foster placement.

The letter identified:

  • Named carers “Del” and “Shopna”

  • Social worker Kirsty Hornal

  • Three police reports already filed

  • Journal entries by Regal (age 16), evidencing psychological abuse, food and water deprivation, racial mockery, and emotional suppression


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This is not a complaint.
This is an evidentiary indictment of active state cruelty.

The letter documents:

  • The criminal endangerment of asthmatic children

  • Psychological violence and infantilisation (e.g., denying pencils, punishing expression)

  • Retaliatory placement design, meant not to protect but to punish

  • A culture of mockery and suppression directed at American children for daring to have a mother who speaks

It is a letter, yes — but it is also a mirror, angled toward every layer of authority that certified these carers and permitted this to unfold.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because Westminster has now crossed from negligence into theatre — a theatre of procedural cruelty where foster care is used as an instrument of punishment, and every safeguarding form becomes a prop in the state’s performance of concern.

Because when a child’s journal is ignored, when asthma becomes a battleground, and when meals are politicised, it is not care — it is abuse dressed in lanyards.

Because these are American citizens, forced to learn that disclosure leads to retaliation — and that silence is the only sanctioned form of survival.


IV. Violations Cited

  • Children Act 1989 – Sections 22, 47, and 31

  • ECHR Articles 3, 8, and 14

  • UNCRC Articles 12, 19, 24, 37

  • Equality Act 2010 – s.149 (Public Sector Equality Duty)

  • Potential criminal offences including:

    • Emotional abuse

    • Denial of necessities

    • Racially aggravated harassment

    • Retaliation against protected speech


V. SWANK’s Position

Let this letter stand — as notice, archive, and warning.

If no reassessment occurs, the Local Authority moves from institutional error into procedural collusion. And the world will watch — not because of Polly Chromatic’s grief, but because she wrote it all down.

SWANK will continue to write everything down.
Because there is no safeguarding in silence.
And there is no protection without truth.

Chromatic v Westminster: On the Criminal Improvisation of Foster Placements and the Archiving of State Cruelty



๐Ÿ’  SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue ๐Ÿ’ 

✒️ Filed: 2 August 2025 | Ref Code: WCC-SAFEGUARDING-CRIMINAL-RETALIATION | PDF: 2025-08-02_SWANK_CriminalNotice_FosterAbuseRetaliation.pdf

๐Ÿ”น Formal Notice of Criminal Child Abuse, Retaliation, and Intent to File Police Report

In the Matter of Westminster’s Foster Placements, Uncorrected Harm, and the Archive of State-Endorsed Cruelty


I. What Happened

On 2 August 2025, Polly Chromatic issued formal notification to Westminster Children’s Services, documenting criminal safeguarding violations committed against her four U.S. citizen children while placed under an Emergency Protection Order obtained through misrepresentation and discrimination.

The notice was sent to:

  • All senior Westminster safeguarding personnel

  • Ofsted, CAFCASS, Social Work England

  • The U.S. Department of State

  • UN Special Rapporteurs on Arbitrary Detention, Torture, and Child Protection

The catalyst: Regal’s handwritten journal, now archived in the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue, describing a climate of deprivation, humiliation, and emotional suppression inside the foster placement.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

Regal’s diary evidences:

  • Food denial to Kingdom (age 10) on the basis of age — institutional starvation

  • Hydration and journaling suppression — pencils and water bottles banned upstairs

  • Guardian manipulation — Regal told the case would last “6 months or more if your mom doesn’t comply”

  • Silencing of sibling affection and emotional support — enforced through carer rules

  • Direct humiliation by carers Del and Shopna — including bike insults and emotional threats

These are not protective boundaries.
These are the curated instruments of state-enabled child abuse.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because this is no longer about one letter.
This is an entire government department refusing to act on:

  • A child’s handwritten testimony

  • A known injury and emotional breakdown

  • Parental witness accounts corroborated by judicial filings

  • International legal disclosures made on record

Because Westminster has chosen to side with its image, not its obligations.


IV. Violations Cited

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 47 failure

  • ECHR Articles 3, 8, and 14

  • UNCRC Articles 12, 19, 24, 37

  • Equality Act 2010 – disability and nationality discrimination

  • Criminal acts including:

    • Neglect

    • Assault by proxy

    • Psychological abuse

    • Retaliation for protected disclosures


V. SWANK’s Position

We affirm:
This letter is not performative.
It is legal. It is evidentiary. It is future admissible.

The journal entries have been published as a permanent indictment of this local authority’s safeguarding pretence — and as a warning to every institution that chooses containment over care.

Westminster has 48 hours.
After that: court, police, press, and international diplomatic channels activate in full.

The children are watching. So is the world.

Chromatic v Metropolitan Police – On the Failure to Hear a Bleeding Boy



๐ŸชžSWANK London Ltd.

The Evidentiary Catalogue of Procedural Abuse


The Bleeding of the Boy – A Mother's Dispatch to a Deaf State

(Re: URGENT Interview Request for Regal – Bloody Knuckles, Journal Distress, and Disability Violations)


๐Ÿ—‚ Filed: 3 August 2025

๐Ÿ“ Reference: SWANK-2308-REGAL

๐Ÿ“„ PDF: 2025-08-03_SWANK_Letter_MetPolice_RegalInterviewRequest.pdf

๐Ÿ“Œ Summary: Met Police informed of Regal’s injury, emotional collapse, and institutional abuse. Interview urgently demanded.


I. What Happened

A formal safeguarding escalation was submitted by Polly Chromatic on 3 August 2025, requesting a trauma-informed police interview for her eldest son, Regal (16), following observed injuries and disclosures of distress. Regal, a U.S. citizen and primary sibling protector, discreetly handed his mother a handwritten journal during a court-ordered contact session. The journal described emotional abandonment, disorientation, and isolation. Bloody knuckles were visible.

Meanwhile, the Metropolitan Police placed three unsolicited phone calls to Polly — ignoring not only her documented disability (trauma-induced dysphonia) but also her clearly stated voicemail and written instructions to communicate by email only.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This is not merely a request for action; it is a declaration of escalation. The evidence submitted includes:

  • Regal’s handwritten journal, expressing despair, fear, and the burden of sibling care.

  • A visible injury (bloody knuckles) noted under supervised contact.

  • Prior police reports naming both carers and social workers as sources of harm.

  • A pattern of discriminatory disregard for the mother’s communication needs — despite disclosure in police reportsvoicemail, and email headers.

Polly Chromatic, acting as both legal advocate and archivist of harm, demands formal recognition of Regal's distress and an immediate, uninterruptedtrauma-informed safeguarding interview — free from social worker obstruction.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because a 16-year-old wrote, “no one is there for me,” while his knuckles bled.
Because trauma shouldn’t be editorialised by carers or filtered through institutional PR.
Because the police — already in possession of multiple reports — continue to phone a disabled woman with a medically documented voice disorder.

Because this isn’t safeguarding. It’s state-authored emotional harm.


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010, Section 20 – failure to provide reasonable communication adjustments

  • Section 149, Public Sector Equality Duty – discriminatory service delivery

  • ECHR Article 14 – interference with procedural and disability rights

  • UNCRC Articles 12 & 19 – right of the child to be heard and protected from violence

  • PACE 1984, Code C – requirement for appropriate, independent handling of vulnerable child interviews


V. SWANK’s Position

SWANK London Ltd. asserts that the UK safeguarding system has once again mistaken its own power for a substitute for care. Regal has asked — in writing, in bruises, and in silence — for someone to notice. His journal and his injuries speak louder than the state’s policies.

The Metropolitan Police have 24 hours to respond.
Not to a mother — but to a boy bleeding in plain sight.

In Re: Injuries Without Answers – Regal’s Knuckles and Prerogative’s Arm Under State Custody



๐Ÿชž SWANK London Ltd.
He Bled in Silence
Regal’s Knuckles, Prerogative’s Arm, and the Sound of State Neglect


Filed:
2 August 2025

Reference Code:
SWANK-ADDENDUM-0825-INJURYVISIBLE

Filename:
2025-08-02_SWANK_Addendum_Knuckles_BruiseEvidence.pdf

1-Line Summary:
Visible injuries on Regal and Prerogative observed during contact — unexplained, unreported, and indicative of ongoing abuse in state-arranged care.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

On 1 August 2025, during a supervised contact session at the Contact Centre, the mother, Polly Chromatic, observed that:

  • Regal’s knuckles were scraped and bleeding.

  • Prerogative had a distinct bruise on his upper left arm.

Both boys appeared frightened, subdued, and emotionally flat. Regal, age 16, dismissed the injury by claiming he "fell," while visibly avoiding eye contact and showing signs of emotional distress. No explanation was offered by the carers. The children’s affect was markedly different from previous visits.

Regal discreetly handed his journal to his mother — a coded attempt to speak without words. His entries further confirm degrading conditions in the foster placement, including water restrictions, surveillance, emotional abuse, and coercive control.


II. WHAT THE INJURIES INDICATE

This is not hygiene oversight. It is not playtime bruising. It is institutionalised harm manifesting on skin:

  • Scraped knuckles are consistent with defensive injury or punishment.

  • Unexplained arm bruising may reflect restraint, rough handling, or physical discipline — all categorically prohibited.

  • Refusal to speak is not “reluctance”; it is fear.

  • Journal entries are now forensic artefacts — testifying in ways the children no longer feel safe to.

These are children who know they cannot tell the truth without punishment. That silence is itself the evidence.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

Because the bruises are real.
Because the silence is coerced.
Because Regal, a child with asthma, is bleeding and no one in authority has sounded the alarm.

And because if you can see this and still do nothing — you have no business in safeguarding.


IV. VIOLATIONS

  • Children Act 1989 – Duty of protection and care violated

  • Article 3 ECHR – Inhuman and degrading treatment of a child

  • Article 8 ECHR – Violation of bodily integrity and private life

  • UNCRC Article 19 – Failure to protect child from all forms of physical or mental violence

  • Fostering Regulations 2011 – Breach of standards for safe placement

  • Health & Safety – Negligent oversight in safeguarding of minor


V. SWANK’S POSITION

Regal bled. Prerogative bruised.
And the carers — agents of the state — offered no explanation, no record, no care.

The mother filed a police report (Ref: TAA-38034-25-0101-IR) and submitted sworn evidence. Yet the foster carers remain in charge, and the children remain under control.

This post stands as recordreproach, and retaliatory mirror. It declares:

You may try to bury the truth —
but bruises surface.
And the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue does not forget.

Filed in unshakable fidelity to the children’s pain,

In Re: Regal’s Journal and the Statutory Fiction of Safe Foster Care



๐Ÿชž SWANK London Ltd.
The Report They Never Wanted Filed
The Regal Entry: In Re Criminal Neglect Disguised as Foster Care


Filed: 2 August 2025
Reference Code: SWANK-CRIMELOG-0825-DEL
Filename: 2025-08-02_SWANK_CrimeLog_FosterNeglect_DelPoliceReport.pdf
1-Line Summary:
A formal police report documenting food deprivation, asthma risk, and racialised treatment of a 10-year-old U.S. citizen in state care.


I. WHAT HAPPENED

On 2 August 2025, a police report was filed by Polly Chromatic on behalf of her 10-year-old son, Kingdom, documenting criminal neglect and discriminatory abuse in a Westminster-commissioned foster placement.

According to a handwritten journal entry authored by Regal and recovered during supervised contact, his brother was explicitly told "you can’t eat because you’re 10." The journal further describes a regime of arbitrary restrictions:
– No water bottles upstairs
– No pencils upstairs
– Mocking comments tied to his American identity

Kingdom suffers from eosinophilic asthma, a chronic and medically serious condition. These restrictions jeopardised his health, emotional wellbeing, and autonomy. His mother reported this treatment as criminal neglect, compounded by disability discrimination and xenophobic verbal abuse.

The report was submitted under police reference TAA-38016-25-0101-IR.


II. WHAT THE POLICE REPORT ESTABLISHES

This is not a hypothetical. It is not an allegation dressed in fury.
It is a filed, timestamped, and jurisdictionally sound police report alleging:

  • Medical negligence through hydration denial

  • Psychological abuse via infantilising rules

  • Racial and national discrimination toward a Black American boy

  • Safeguarding failure in a local authority-commissioned foster home

  • Documented emotional harm recovered in the child's own handwriting

Regal was not acting out — he was documenting. And now, so are we.


III. WHY SWANK LOGGED IT

Because no foster carer should tell a child when they can eat based on their age.
Because asthma is not a disciplinary tool.
Because cruelty delivered in a soft voice is still cruelty.
Because the child wrote it down — and the mother filed it — and we archive it.

This isn’t just parenting interference. It is criminal interference in a child’s health, development, and liberty.


IV. VIOLATIONS

  • Children Act 1989 – Sections 1(3)(b), 17, and 47: Welfare neglect and child protection failure

  • Children and Families Act 2014, s.19 – Violation of wellbeing duty

  • UNCRC Articles 3, 12, 13, 19 – Best interests, right to be heard, expression, and protection from harm

  • ECHR Article 8 – Violation of private and family life

  • Equality Act 2010, s.6 and s.20 – Discrimination on grounds of disability

  • Criminal Law – Emotional abuse, neglect, and racial hostility


V. SWANK’S POSITION

This report has now been entered into the SWANK CrimeLog.

We do not merely document harm — we criminalise it, we narrate it, and we dare it to survive scrutiny.

Westminster placed this child.
A foster carer enforced deprivation.
The state concealed it — and a mother reported it.
Now we preserve it.

This is not safeguarding.
This is a cover-up wearing lanyards.
