    The UK is a secular democracy so our laws are based on civil and common law.

    Does Jordan follow Sharia law? Same sex relations have been legal there longer than the UK

    Was interested in this myself so just had a Google

    Jordan is a constitutional monarchy it's king has more power than our royals do, he decides a lot.

    Sharia law is applied only to personal status such as divorce and inheritance

    Whilst the official religion is Islam Jordan also has freedom of religion and extends it to personal freedoms

    In parts I think. But there are a lot more ‘liberal’ laws in Jordan and some other Middle Eastern countries

    This kind of illustrates the point I was trying to make earlier. Sharia law just means religious law, but it’s the application of those laws in practice which vary. If you get an evil dictator enacting sharia law, it’s the evil dictator who’s responsible for the abuse, rather than sharia law itself.

    That's generally how these things go, you topple a hereditary tyrant and end up with something worse, and then everyone reminisces about the good old days.

    We still do it. Just the definition of 'witch' and method of destruction has changed.

    They still burn the Pope every November 5th in Lewes, but I think it’s just an effigy. They also burned Nigel Farage this year, shame that wasn’t the real one…

    How do you know? Is there a way to tell the difference between Nigel Farage and a dummy?

    Well they’d be hypocrites. All that goes on in the countries you mentioned.
