Falsehoods, misstatements, alternate facts, misquotes, fabrications, etc with the intent to deceive are just lies. Donald Trump is a Liar.

Misstatements

It was long accepted that negligent or unintentional statements, however inaccurate or misleading, could not provide the basis for an action to recover financial loss caused by reliance on that statement [Candler v Crane Christmas & Co]. 

THEN --> Hedley Byrne v Heller - liability for negligent misstatement which causes economic loss where:

The relationship will exist if one party exercises skill and judgement and the other party acts in reliance of this skill and judgement.

The person making the statement must possess skill in relation to the particular statement that is made and should realise that the other party will act in reliance upon the statement.

The party to whom the statement is made must have acted in reliance with that statement in circumstances where it was reasonable for him to rely upon the statement.

The special relationship in Hedley Byrne v Heller can also be found in:

An environmental health inspector and the owners of a guest house [Walton v North Cornwall District Council]

A bank clerk advising on a mortgage [Cornish v Midland Bank plc]

a friend (holding himself out as having some knowledge about cars) purchasing a car on his friend’s behalf [Chaudry v Prabhakar]

Henderson v Merrett Syndicates = the foundation of DoC in Hedley Byrne was the assumption of responsibility by the defendant to the claimant. If this was established, then it is fair, just and reasonable to impose a duty of care.

Liability to third parties

In this scenario, there still may be sufficient proximity for liability to arise for the defendant’s negligent misstatement as long as there is a special relationship between defendant and claimant [Spring v Guardian Assurance] [White v Jones].

None of us want to offend those who believe differently from us but we should respectfully correct misstatements of our beliefs.
