If it’s opinion it can’t be defamatory. Simple as that.

Stuck your neck out there.

Huh?

Coz the opposite of opinion is fact and without getting all Robbo on you, I kinda think facts can’t be defamatory coz you know they are facts.

If facts aren’t defamatory then you only have opinions that can be. Right?

You bet giraffe I did.

Alex said ‘it’s as simple as that’, so that’s the end of it.
Hang on - was that a fact or an opinion though?

The mans news story of the year is the “poo jogger”.

Opinion is a defence to defamation.

Glad you chose to dump that here.

Yeah good job on not being able to understand a throwaway line said in jest.

I’m only having fun with that one too.

God you’re sensitive

So if my opinion is that you are a wife beating paedofile who should be sacked from his job, and I published it, then it is all ok.

Mate, I got a defamation writ once for calling a bloke a drop kick on Facebook, which was then published in newspapers. In my opinion he was, but it was seen as defamatory, hence I apologised publicly to stop the court case.

Try it out and stay those things about Doc Reid, and I will send the details to him.

What are you basing that opinion off? Seeing as how you don’t know me or anything about me, you’d have a hard time convincing anyone that that’s an honestly held opinion based on any sort of fact.

Mods, … can you lock this friggin thread for a bit??

Fkn hell…

Yeah but you were the Mayor at the time. Bit different to an anonymous dude on the webs.

Incidentally pretty damn glorious to do it as the Mayor though.
