Re: These despicable MPs
Some interesting facts about other countries which repealed the same sort of law and when at the end of the article.http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/fea...103929836.html
Edit to include quote from article...
Once Jordan formally repeals this provision from its penal code, it would be joining three other countries in the region that made similar reforms: Egypt in 1999, Morocco in 2014 and Tunisia last week.
In the past 30 years, other countries around the world made similar strides to abolish such provisions, including Italy in 1981, France in 1994, Peru in 1998, Romania in 2000, Uruguay in 2006 and Costa Rica in 2007.

It is one of those "joke" Laws that get left on the statute books, by mistake.
More frightening they had it in the first place.
