A Welsh MP has started sleeping in his Westminster office after claiming strict expense standards have resulted in him no longer being able to afford a London hotel.
David Davies, Conservative MP for Monmouth, has been sleeping on a blow-up mattress in his parliamentary office after failing to find an overnight stay near Westminster for less than the £130 allowance limit.
He has instead used his expenses to buy a £60 airbed and £15 duvet which he uses during the working week.
Mr Davies estimates that if he could buy a £500 bed and stay in the Commons on every overnight stay, he would save the taxpayer £80,000.
But he is only allowed to stay in his office occasionally because of Parliamentary Authority health and safety rules.
What Mr Davies needs is a nice comfortable Memory foam pillow, Goose down duvet and Goose down quilts.
