Relevant factors to consider:
Importance (Bannerman v White)

notes
curtis overriding oral assuring that this misrep the clause ( if it's
the just the usual is it typical or not ) ( this is highly unusual
then it's a misrep ) sometime it is common and sometime not really
but either you can argue your way
also consider warranty and all
onerous clause the greather the risk then thee should notify.( For
instance when mentioning negligence it should be honorus clause
therefore this require greater alert and notification

negligence
Supply of sales good act

Condition, warranty , innominate terms
For express terms use Schuler v wickman and then Possuard v Spiers ,
Betteni v Gye and hong kong fir Vkawaski test . ( The breach deprived
the party of the benefit of the entire contract, therefore this is a
breach and this allow the C right to the election , so they terminate
the contract and claim damages as a result.
Hochester v De la tour : An anticipatory breach of contract
This type of breach is one where a party expressly communicates that
they will not be carrying out a term or condition of the contract. (
Bunge v Tradex it was held performing a contract in a date agreed
upon was a condition and therefore this a breach he term ought to be
constructed as a condition
_
Section 14 (2) (3), also but consider 15 (a) which is warranty and
damages only.
