From The Evening Standard:
MORE bad news for Trevor Phillips (left), beleaguered Chairman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission. Last week he squirmed as Parliament’s Select Committee on Human Rights grilled him about claims made by prominent former colleagues who resigned from the EHRC, which costs the taxpayer £70 million a year...
Sorry, how much?
UPDATE, as Adam C points out in the comments, the EHRC 'only' burned through £52 million in the first two years of its existence. Their accounts are an absolute joy to read.

£51 million over almost two years actually, according to their accounts. Not sure where the Evening Standard got that £70 million a year figure from.
... that's still £51,000,000 of "Oops" money.
AC, I have updated.
BID, exactly. To put it in perspective, Trevor Phillips and his little friends cost us nearly as much as The Royal Family, and I know which one I'd rather do without.
