The Blasphemy law is pretty much dead in the UK these days: It hasn't seen the inside of a court room for over half a century to my knowledge, though it does technically remain on the books.
Every few years somebody tries to use a Private Members Bill or an amendment to a Criminal Offences Bill to get it repealed, but somebody out of the Monday Club wing of the Tory Party gets it blocked somehow. Frankly, it needs to go, the sooner the better.
