SURPRISE FUCKING SURPRISE
Conservative minister whose family farms beef and lamb signed off on a £5m advertising campaign encouraging people to eat more red meat
Conservatism - socialism for me and my mates, but fuck everyone else
Given the history of Conservative ideals. Their whole goal grew from trying to conserve feudalism remnants post 1689. They have renamed and stuffeled about. But the basic ethos of the right wing main UK party. Is not to change the 2 class system of lords and commoners. The whigs were the representatives of the Lords in commons. While the old librals represented the idea of commons actually representing the working class.
The implementation has changed with the 1920 to 40s building up a labour party build to allow the working class to represent them selves. Rather then the early libral party ideals that the wealthy should protect its required resources.
But the right of the house is still very much built on the Idea there are 2 classes and one has higher rights then the other. They just ignore the original left of the house idea that those rights come with responsibility.

Quite the record of voting against all benefits for unemployed, disabled, housing etc. for someone who wants the state to fund his private enterprises.
Unsurprisingly one of the MPs caught fiddling expenses, misusing taxpayer funds and hiding sexual assault allegations against other MPs. Obviously deserved to be knighted for all that.
