- Case Description
Defamation - In Miller and Power v Turner, the plaintiffs brought a defamation action over tweets in which they were described as racist and antisemitic, while the defendant brought a counterclaim for alleged harassment through persistent online communication. The High Court dismissed both claims because the plaintiffs could not prove serious harm within the meaning of the Defamation Act 2013 and the conduct complained of did not reach the legal threshold for harassment against the defendant. The facts of the case were in the context of a public political discourse in which previous antisemitic hostility towards the defendant was also discussed.
