Yes, the claimant failed, the defendant won.
He said no such thing.Yep. The judge said that what was written was pretty much truthful.
Opinion, doesn’t mean it’s fact…..as you point out.Looked pretty weak tbh.
You are entitled to your opinion.He said no such thing.

Honest opinion does not mean it’s fact.
Claimant failed to prove serious harm. Honest opinion has always been a defence.
There is no defamation without showing serious harm.
Judgement is here.

When providing a source it's always a good idea to make sure it doesn't directly contradict you.I therefore conclude that the fact indicated in the article was true. Further, the para 19
facts, to the extent that these travel more widely, are also substantially true.
119. I asked Ms Page whether I could, or should, make a finding of fact as to Dyson’s real
reasons for the para 19 decisions. Ms Page strongly submitted that I should not. Mr
Justin Rushbrooke KC for the Claimantsubmitted that it was open to me to make certain
findings on this topic but he did not suggest that I was required to. Until Ms Page
advanced the submission that she did I was minded to set out my conclusions as to
Dyson’s reasons for the para 19 decisions, not least because these, albeit multifactorial,
seem clear – at least on the information contained in the voluminous trial bundles.
However, I have been persuaded by Ms Page that I should be careful not to express any
comment beyond that which is absolutely necessary to determine the issues in this
litigation. It is not my function to undermine Mr Reade. Furthermore, I have said “at
least on the information contained in the voluminous trial bundles” because I recognise
that all the financial, accounting and tax implications have not been evidenced and
explored.
The article was not retracted, or a forced apology made.He said no such thing.

Point out the benefits thenBrexit was the best think the British public did for themselves since WWII.
The Brits are ace at doing what's right, not what is best in the short term.
Brexit just needs time.
Something the selfish and the short sighted are not prepared to accept.
That argument has been done to death.Point out the benefits then
You mean "little crown on pint of beer".Little crown on beer glass.
No ****, Sherlock.The crown is on the glass, not the beer.
