Hotel porn and cat neutering among UK's £1bn expense claims

Workers in Britain reap about £1bn from 'expense claims', says Travelodge.

The 4,000 person survey showed 22% of workers, or 6.3 million people, "admit they regularly fiddle their company expense claims".

Adult films at hotels, alcohol and clothes were common claims. Neutering a cat, a Caribbean cruise and a pregnancy test kit were among the odder ones.

Others included a Gucci watch, a hamster for an employee's son's birthday present, a Masonic door-knocker, condoms and dancing lessons.
