MEMO : NAUGHTY BEN LANGFORD

Expect a sharp rebuke from ALP NT secretary Mark Whittaker . Your report in the NT News , headed LABOR HELPED KATE IN CHAN , in which it was revealed that the said Mark admitted to helping "independent" candidate Kate Worden in the Darwin City Council by-election , twice committed the gross error of calling him Whitaker (sic) . It is not the first time your paper has been guilty of this- it happened before when he was an adviser to the Chief Minister. You can escape being flogged by blaming the error on a sloppy sub editor. Worden, of course, is an adviser to the Chief Minister.

Mark kindly made available the ALP database for mail outs and even handed out how-to- vote cards for Ms Worden.
