The Defence of the Realm Act was never explicitly repealed, but it would be near to impossible to secure a conviction based on it, as subsequent legislation has effectively overturned most of its provisions. In the same way; blasphemy laws have never been repealed, and yet a court ruled a year or two ago that human rights legislation made it impossible to convict anyone of blasphemy.
