Whilst Theresa May preaches that Homophobes and Racists should be allowed free speech she also refuses to allow 16-17-year-olds the vote killing their free speech and right to vote. In November last year Tories refused 16/17 years olds the vote without even voting it in the house of commons Labour accused them of using out-of-date Parliamentary rules to ensure the move would be blocked. The move would have been made law through a backbench Bill by Labour MP Jim McMahon. But out-of-date Commons rules - which Tories have refused to change means it was blocked.  So by total coincidence, several Tory MPs spoke for ages in favour of the first law of the day, a popular bid to force police to wear body cameras when they restrain people. Between them, five Tories spoke for 95 minutes - each droning on for longer than the first Bill's author Steve Reed. That meant there were just an hour and 28 minutes left by the time it got to the Votes at 16 Bill.
