The abiding dream of any nationalist is to see the ‘Equality and Human Rights Commission’ (EHRC) closed down for good, and its useless, overpaid staff having to stand in line at the Job Centre, struggling to survive like so many ordinary people.
The article below from the BBC website will make a lot of people very happy.
Staff at the Equality and Human Rights Commission have staged a one-hour strike in several cities in protest over cuts.
Members of the Public and Commercial Services Union have walked out in a dispute over cuts.
The first one-hour stoppage was at the main offices in Cardiff, Birmingham, Glasgow, London and Manchester, with another planned for next Wednesday.
The commission called the union’s demands “unrealistic”.
The commission plans to more than halve its staff from 460 to 200 within 12 months, with many of those remaining being consultants or on short term contracts – after budget cuts of 68%.
The government has announced it is withdrawing funding for the EHRC’s helpline and grants programme and the commission has moved forward its plans to close its regional offices.
The union called on EHRC chair Trevor Phillips to reveal his plans for the future of the organisation, challenging him to define the “core functions” which he claims will be protected.
In a ballot of the union’s 314 members in EHRC, more than 77% voted to strike on a turnout of 48%.
According to the union, plans to cut the commission’s budget down to £22.5 million by 2015 – from £70 million when it was formed in 2007 – would mean employers and public authorities would no longer be held to account if they carried out discriminatory policies.
It claims these cuts would also effectively end the commission’s legal work, which recently helped ensure six million carers in Britain are protected against discrimination in employment.
PCS general secretary Mark Serwotka said: “These are dedicated staff, experts in their fields, and this strike action shows how determined they are to maintain proper, quality services to the public.
“This work is particularly important at a time when government cuts are making it more likely people will face discrimination and disadvantage, and we urge the commission to talk to us about the alternatives.”
A spokesperson for the Equality and Human Rights Commission said: “The commission has been in extensive consultation with the PCS for months on issues arising from our own reform programme, which is shaping the commission to be effective for the future, as well as a government-imposed budget cutback and consultation on our powers and duties.
“We regret that the union has decided to withdraw from this process after issuing a list of unrealistic demands which the commission simply cannot meet. The entire public sector is having to take difficult decisions and we cannot give untenable guarantees to staff here.”
Yes they are worried, because they will find it harder to enforce diversity legislation, and this will limit their power to force public and private sector to hire and promote black and Asian immigrants at the expense of native white Britons.
The problems for the EHRC started when they attempted to prosecute the British National Party.
The MSM were more than happy to see Trevor Phillips trying to bankrupt the BNP, the truth is that many were privately worried that the EHRC was becoming too powerful and had become a monster out of control.
Let’s not forget that when the court case started, the only newspaper which opposed it was the ‘Jewish Chronicle’ and with very good reason.
If a political party could be forced to accept non-whites, then Jewish, or other single denomination institutions could be sued because they refused to allow those of another denomination to join.
And where would this stop?
What the EHRC staff are either too dim, or brainwashed to realise is that they are hated a lot more than the British National Party, and this may partly explain why the strike received very little coverage in the MSM.

Let’s hope they all lose their jobs.

"The commission called the union’s demands “unrealistic”."
The commission IS unrealistic. Get rid.
This strange, comforting feeling which I am currently experiencing…What shall I call it? Does the English language have an appropriate word? Perhaps not. I know: I shall call it 'schadenfreude'
Dont worry Trevor Phillips.If the EHRC is closed down,you could always come back as EHRC Against Crusaders.Or EHRC4UK.
Just like those other haters of the UK.
70 million to fund this crap organisation what was put together to bring the BNP to its knees and failed costing the tax payer , god knows how much ?.70 million how many pensioners homes would that heat ? How many free meals could that deliver ? Trevor Phillips you remind me of the ring around my bath after a 100 miners have used it , that is before the pits were closed. There is no one more I would like to see at my job centre than Mr.T. Phillips.70 million pounds. Phillips you disgust me, human rights, I am afraid you have no idea. I am human and I have rights but you tried to take them away from me, now I hope it is your time to suffer. Scum can always be washed away, but tough stains like the BNP could take a little longer………………
I hate to see people lose their jobs, but after hearing staff at the African born Trevor Philips’ club have got squeaky bums, well what can i say?
Haha,hehheh,hoho.
Why? You can be sure hardly any whites are working in the EHRC.
It is not an equalities commission it's an anti-white anti-english anti-british commission try going to them if you are in a Job and you are being discriminated against for being white christian and british, The opposition will say oh this just doesn't happen well go and see how many firms are owned and run by so called minorities now. No one want's to help us these days not even the police there against us as well, and they wonder why the youngsters acting like they have got nothing to lose anymore by doing crazy things like stabbing each other just because they think they were looked at in the wrong way, The older generation have to stop being so ignorant and stop thinking about themselves and start thinking about what knock on effects their vote causing. You walk into to a road without looking you will get run over, you vote without thinking the knock on effects will be worse because it will harm you and everyone around you.
I'll miss em.
This nasty vile organisation needs closing down completely a.s.a.p.
“How fair are our prospects ( in Britain ) when post-modern subsidised oracles like the EHRC preach and praise rights but not duties, when we are invited by such prophets down an endless series of false and petty claims, demands, loud clamorous and petty mutterings about “injustice” and the pursuit of hedonism, all with an official face ? The EHRC should be abolished.” Jon Gower Davis – Small Corroding Words WELL SAID MR. DAVIS !
