> Slander/Libel, in the UK where this isn't, has to contain falsehoods.
Be careful this is a dangerous interpretation of UK law. Slander/Libel must contain some element that the person doing the saying/publishing cannot prove in court. Note the burden of proof lies on the person saying/writing rather than the person sueing.

sorry, yes, I am aware that the burden of proof is on the accused slanderer, since these are civil rather than criminal cases. I appreciate that that wasn't clear from my original comment.
