UK's families put on fraud alert.

Two computer discs holding the personal details of all families in the UK with a child under 16 have gone missing.
The Child Benefit data on them includes name, address, date of birth, National Insurance number and, where relevant, bank details of 25 million people.

Chancellor Alistair Darling said there was no evidence the data had gone to criminals - but urged people to monitor bank accounts "for unusual activity".

The Conservatives described the incident as a "catastrophic" failure.

In an emergency statement to MPs, Mr Darling apologised for what he described as an "extremely serious failure on the part of HMRC to protect sensitive personal data entrusted to it in breach of its own guidelines".

MPs gasped as Mr Darling told them: "The missing information contains details of all Child Benefit recipients: records for 25 million individuals and 7.25 million families. "

  • Why is it that unsucessful Chancellors always have strange eyebrows? Denis Healy, Norman Lamont, Gordon Brown and now Captain Darling.

  • Please could you tell Gordon that I would like to get interest on Harriet's money when it's returned to me. Also, I don't want to pay capital gains tax on it so tell darling Alistair he can't have any of it, ta

  • Alistair Darling destroyed the lives of many British people on the 8th of October 2008. He lied. His gang of McCarthy-Fry, Pearson, Sants and Baron von Myners then went of a major coverup spree. A disgusting man. theukgovernment com - take a look, I live on the streets because of him and at least one other person has taken their own life. I used to support Labour as my father did and my fathers father, but never again.

  • pretty nasty. showing lots of (pretty unremarkable) photos of the man one after the other proves nothing.

  • the revolution will not be happening due to health and safety laws,this country is about to come to a grinding halt....

  • Lets not forget 88p for a Sink Plug

  • VENUS PROJECT NOW!

  • Politics is Finished thanks to nu labour...Turn your back on it and start living your life....

  • JACQUI SMITH HAS CHARGED TAXPAYERS FOR EVERYTHING from a £2.50 toothbrush holder to a £104.56 patio heater, to help her 'perform her duties as an MP'.

    The Home Secretary's extraordinary expenses claims also included a £14 doormat and a £369.99 flat-screen TV.

    However, she is understood to dispute reports based on leaked receipts that she had also billed the Commons for a £39.99 barbecue and £334.70 for plant pots.

    Oh an pay-per-view pornographic movies watched by her husband.

  • All true :)

    I've always been a huge fan of women.

  • Those eyebrows are sexy... NOT!

  • Pusillanimous men mainly. Betty Boothroyd was formidable. Margaret Thatcher is still formidable.
