“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

Recently Tried in the Court of Public Opinion

Chromatic v Westminster (Representation Contradictions; Access to Justice; Procedural Obstruction)


ADDENDUM: ON THE MISUSE OF REPRESENTATION STATUS

A Mirror Court Indictment of Contradiction, Obstruction, and Silencing by Procedural Farce

Metadata

I. What Happened

At the ICO hearing of 24 June 2025, I was falsely recorded as unrepresented, despite having a solicitor aware of the hearing. The order proceeded without defense.

Afterwards, when I dismissed the solicitor and became litigant in person, I was falsely recorded as represented. Filings misdirected, delayed, obstructed.

Thus, representation status became a procedural weapon: first silence by absence, then silence by blockage.

II. What the Addendum Establishes

Contradiction as Control
Misrecording engineered to erase voice at both critical junctures.

Clerical Error Elevated to Misconduct
Party status inverted contrary to FPR 2010 r.29.1 and CPR r.42.2.

Access to Justice Denied
Article 6 ECHR effective participation obstructed.

III. Consequences

  • ICO granted without proper defense.

  • Subsequent filings obstructed or delayed.

  • Rights to act as party in person curtailed.

  • Systemic prejudice embedded into record.

IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Family Procedure Rules 2010, r.29.1 – party status lies with litigant.

  • Civil Procedure Rules, r.42.2 – solicitor authority terminates upon dismissal.

  • Article 6, ECHR – fair hearing breached.

  • Case Law: Re C (Litigant in Person: Costs and Participation) [2014] EWCA Civ 128 – courts must safeguard fair participation of litigants in person.

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not administrative error. It is contradiction institutionalised: absence recorded at the moment defense was needed, presence imposed when independence was exercised. Access to justice inverted into obstruction.

Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: representation was never neutral — it was weaponised. Silence by absence at the hearing; silence by blockage thereafter. The contradiction is hereby archived as a record of systemic misconduct.

Chromatic v Westminster (Disregard of Homeschooling; Omission as Distortion; Welfare Principle Breach)


ADDENDUM: DISREGARD OF STRUCTURED HOMESCHOOLING BY WESTMINSTER CHILDREN’S SERVICES

A Mirror Court Indictment of Omission, Misrepresentation, and Educational Neglect by Proxy

Metadata

I. What Happened

My children followed a structured homeschooling programme: lesson plans, academic progression, tailored educational activities. Yet Ms. Hornal ignored every aspect of this, erasing an established educational record to insinuate neglect.

II. What the Addendum Establishes

Omission as Distortion
Failure to mention homeschooling created a false narrative of neglect.

Educational Evidence Ignored
Curriculum, stability, and medical-need accommodations excluded.

Bias Entrenched
A deliberate silence weaponised to misrepresent lawful parental provision.

III. Consequences

  • Children’s educational provision misrepresented.

  • False narratives of inadequacy circulated in safeguarding records.

  • Genuine academic progress erased, undermining the children’s confidence.

  • Rights to education and welfare breached under domestic and international law.

IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Children Act 1989, s.1 – welfare principle breached.

  • Education Act 1996, s.7 – parental duty fulfilled, ignored in reporting.

  • Equality Act 2010, s.149 – PSED breached by disregarding health-linked education provision.

  • UNCRC, Articles 28 & 29 – right to education and development of talents ignored.

  • Social Work England Standards – accurate records and recognition of family strengths omitted.

Case Law Ignored:

  • Re G (2012) – education must reflect welfare and best interests.

  • Re W (2010) – children’s views must be considered directly.

V. SWANK’s Position

This was not oversight. It was deliberate omission masquerading as neutrality — homeschooling erased to fabricate neglect. Westminster converted silence into distortion, abandoning accuracy for narrative convenience.

Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: educational provision was not absent, but its recognition was. Structured homeschooling was erased to conjure neglect. Where children’s progress was real, Westminster wrote it out. Omission is distortion, and this distortion is hereby archived.

Chromatic v Westminster (Absence of Theory of Mind; Projection; Procedural Unsafety; Welfare Principle Breach)


ADDENDUM: ABSENCE OF THEORY OF MIND IN SOCIAL WORK PRACTICE

A Mirror Court Indictment of Projection, Bias, and Procedural Collapse

Metadata

  • Filed: 2 September 2025

  • Reference Code: SWANK–HORNAL–THEORYOFMIND

  • PDF Filename: 2025-09-02_SWANK_Addendum_Hornal_TheoryOfMind.pdf

  • Summary (1 line): Hornal’s inability to recognise others’ perspectives corrupted safeguarding with projection and bias.

I. What Happened

Kirsty Hornal conducted safeguarding not as a professional but as a projector: parental actions reinterpreted without context, children’s voices disregarded if they conflicted with her script, cultural and medical contexts erased, every interaction reframed as confirmatory of her pre-existing assumptions.

This was not safeguarding; it was narrative theatre in which only one perspective — her own — was permitted to exist.

II. What the Addendum Establishes

Projection Masquerading as Assessment
Parental conduct distorted by subjective presumption.

Silencing of Children
Children’s perspectives excluded whenever they conflicted with her narrative.

Context Erasure
Medical conditions, homeschooling structures, and cultural realities disregarded.

Bias Codified as Evidence
Pre-existing assumptions recycled as conclusions.

III. Consequences

  • Misrepresentation of parental behaviour.

  • Neglect of children’s needs and wishes.

  • Welfare principle inverted; s.1 Children Act 1989 ignored.

  • Safeguarding record corrupted into a mirror of one individual’s bias.

IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – s.1 welfare principle; s.22(4) duty to ascertain wishes and feelings.

  • Equality Act 2010, s.149 – Public Sector Equality Duty breached.

  • Working Together to Safeguard Children (2023) – trauma-informed, child-centred duty abandoned.

  • Social Work England Professional Standards – independence, empathy, and evidence-based practice disregarded.

  • ECHR – Article 6 fair trial, Article 8 family life infringed.

  • UNCRC – Article 12 child’s right to be heard; Article 3 best interests of the child ignored.

Case Law Ignored:

  • Re W (2010) – children must be given opportunity to be heard.

  • Re B-S (2013) – proportionality and evidence-based practice required.

  • Re G (2003) – fairness demands impartial process.

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding. It is projection institutionalised: one social worker’s inability to take perspective elevated above law, welfare, and rights. The absence of theory of mind in Hornal’s practice is not a minor flaw — it is a systemic disqualification from child welfare work.

Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: where theory of mind was absent, law was inverted. Perspectives erased, voices silenced, welfare abandoned. Hornal substituted her projections for evidence, and Westminster complied. This collapse is hereby archived as bias enthroned.

Chromatic v Westminster (Reasonable Adjustments; Disability Harassment; Procedural Unsafety)


ADDENDUM: REASONABLE ADJUSTMENTS FOR COMMUNICATION – VOCAL CORD INJURY AND ASTHMA

A Mirror Court Indictment of Disability Harassment, Procedural Unsafety, and Welfare Distortion

Metadata

  • Filed: 2 September 2025

  • Reference Code: SWANK–REASONABLE–ADJUSTMENTS

  • PDF Filename: 2025-09-02_SWANK_Addendum_ReasonableAdjustments.pdf

  • Summary (1 line): Written communication demanded as lawful adjustment; refusal is discrimination and procedural collapse.

I. What Happened

I suffer from eosinophilic asthma and sewer gas–induced dysphonia. Extended verbal communication causes acute pain, strain, and respiratory risk. Despite this, Westminster insisted on spoken-only interaction, dismissing my lawful written submissions as “non-engagement.”

II. What the Addendum Establishes

Medical Limitation Ignored
Documented disability aggravated by hostile demands.

Legal Duties Breached
Refusal of reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010.

Procedural Unsafety
Article 6 ECHR fair trial rights undermined by inaccessible procedure.

Children’s Rights Compromised
When I am misrepresented as disengaged, my children’s voices are filtered through inaccurate records, breaching Article 12 UNCRC.

III. Consequences

  • Disability aggravated; recovery obstructed.

  • Participation misrepresented; written engagement distorted into “refusal.”

  • Proceedings rendered unsafe and discriminatory.

  • Children’s welfare compromised by falsified records of parental engagement.

IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – welfare principle breached; parental voice excluded.

  • Equality Act 2010 – s.20–21 reasonable adjustments ignored; s.26 harassment; s.149 Public Sector Equality Duty disregarded.

  • ECHR – Article 6 (fair trial), Article 8 (family life) infringed.

  • UNCRC, Article 12 – child’s right to be heard undermined.

  • UNCRPD, Articles 2 and 5 – refusal of disability accommodation.

Case Law Ignored:

  • Re B-S (2013) – proportionality and evidence-based procedure required.

  • Re G (2003) – fairness requires genuine opportunity to participate.

  • A v UK (1998) – unjustified interference with family life breaches Article 8.

V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding. It is institutional harassment masquerading as engagement: lawful written submissions erased, disability aggravated, children’s rights distorted.

Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: Westminster confused disability with defiance, accommodation with avoidance. Written communication is lawful engagement, not non-engagement. Their refusal of reasonable adjustments is hereby archived as discrimination and procedural collapse.

Chromatic v Westminster (Child Engagement Neglect; Disability Harassment; Welfare Principle Breached)


ADDENDUM: NEGLECT OF CHILD ENGAGEMENT, DISABILITY HARASSMENT, AND POST-POISONING HARM

A Mirror Court Indictment of Harassment, Silence, and Welfare Betrayal

Metadata

I. What Happened

Between February 2024 and February 2025, five successive social workers refused to hear from my children and demanded unsafe speech from me, despite my medical condition.

Regal and Prerogative were denied the chance to attend meetings. My dysphonia and asthma, caused by sewer gas poisoning, were disregarded. Harassment replaced accommodation.

Recovery only began once I filed a police report against Kirsty Hornal in February 2025.

II. What the Addendum Establishes

Silencing of Children
Children’s voices excluded from all safeguarding processes.

Disability Harassment
Demands for unsafe verbal communication constituted harassment under s.26 Equality Act 2010.

Trauma-Ignorant Practice
Contrary to Working Together to Safeguard Children (2023), harassment was imposed during critical illness.

Systemic Misconduct
Five social workers upheld the same unlawful omissions, showing systemic failure rather than error.

III. Consequences

  • Children’s voices erased; welfare principle inverted.

  • Disability aggravated, recovery delayed.

  • Harassment created a hostile and degrading environment.

  • Emotional harm compounded by exclusion and stigma.

  • Trust in safeguarding systems eroded.

IV. Legal and Doctrinal Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – s.1 welfare principle; s.22 duty to ascertain wishes and feelings.

  • Equality Act 2010 – refusal of adjustments; harassment under s.26; breach of Public Sector Equality Duty (s.149).

  • ECHR – Article 6 fair trial; Article 8 family life.

  • UNCRC, Article 12 – child’s right to be heard.

  • UNCRPD, Articles 2 and 5 – duty to accommodate disability.

  • Working Together to Safeguard Children (2023) – trauma-informed duty disregarded.

Case Law Ignored:

  • Re B-S (2013) – proportionality and evidence-based decisions.

  • Re W (2010) – children’s voices must be heard directly.

  • Re G (2003) – fair trial requires impartial process.

  • A v UK (1998) – unjustified interference with family life breaches Article 8.

V. SWANK’s Position

This was not safeguarding. It was systemic cruelty: children silenced, disability mocked, and trauma exploited. Westminster chose harassment over adjustment, silence over voice, and cruelty over care.

Closing Declaration

The Mirror Court declares: five social workers in succession rehearsed the same cruelty — silencing children, harassing disability, prolonging harm. Welfare was inverted into warfare. Accommodation denied, justice deferred. This record of neglect is hereby archived.
