Buzz Aldrin claimed €33 expenses for moon trip

Last week, John Bercow, Britain’s Commons speaker, was accused of “obscene waste” after racking up a £172 bill for being chauffeur-driven to a conference just 0.7 miles (1.1km) from Parliament.

He also spent £367 taking a car to Luton to deliver a speech on how MPs were restoring their reputation after the expenses scandal.

Now, Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon, has revealed a fascinating piece of memorabilia on social media: the travel voucher he billed NASA for his historic journey into space.
