Oops.

Ryan Fahey reports:

The Cabinet Office uploaded the home and work addresses of more than 1,000 recipients of New Years’ Honours, including Elton John, Ben Stokes, Iain Duncan Smith and TV chef Nadiya Hussain.

The work and home addresses of counter-terrorism officials, senior police and Ministry of Defence (MoD) staff were also included in the reams of personal data uploaded to a government website yesterday.
