Theresa May’s anti-extremism plan will protect free speech, says Sajid Javid | Politics | The Guardian

Does anybody else think Javid has been whipped back into his place?

Clearly the Tories have a plan to curtail free speech along with human rights, and they’re not going to let even a high-ranker in their own numbers interfere with that.

The Guardian revealed on Thursday how Javid, as culture secretary, had written to May, the home secretary, in March to warn against the home office’s plans to give the broadcasting regulator the power to vet programmes before they were broadcast.

But Javid told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show on Sunday that the leak had generated “a bit of overexcitement” and that it was normal for cabinet colleagues to argue about policy.
