The claimant seeks damages and an injunction for libel in respect of a tweet posted by the defendant. The defendant applies on notice for summary judgment pursuant to CPR rule 24.2. He says the claimant has no real prospect of succeeding in proving that the publication of the tweet caused him ‘serious harm’, and there is no other reason to allow the case to proceed. The claimant opposes the application.
