Petition Scrap the Equality and Human Rights Council (EHRC)

More details

This wasteful quango used its government issued procurement cards for spending on fancy-dress, exclusive hotels and restaurants, first class rail travel and light therapy for acne, amongst other things. The EHRC also spent taxpayer's money on lobbying political parties, and it is wrong for our money be used by one arm of Government to lobby another. Finally, the National Audit Office has repeatedly refused to sign off the EHRC’s full accounts.
The government should scrap this wasteful and spendthrift Quango without delay
