In English defamation law, honest opinion is a defence against libel. The defendant must prove their opinion was based in fact. To win against this defence, the claimant must prove that the defendant did not hold that opinion. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2013/26/section/3/enacted https://www.hse.gov.uk/enforce/enforcementguide/court/reporting-defamation.htm
