Edward's Expenditure
"The public are rightly angry, and Parliament must acknowledge that the system it devised and operated was wrong.
"I've not yet been an MP for a year, and frankly I'm as shocked and saddened as many of the constituents who have written to me about what some MPs have claimed for.
"My expenses are very boring. I rent a small, single-bed flat from the same letting agent as 4,000 other people in London, and I don't claim for personal food or furniture. If I did choose to swing a cat in my bedroom, the cat would come off pretty badly.
"David Cameron led the way on publication of expenses, saying on 12 May 2009 that in future all claims and receipts must be published online within 28 days, and that receipts would be required for all claims.
"My constituents' feedback says that's a good thing, and I think it is too."
