what does the word 'orthodoxies' mean

i saw a recent interview with a conservative mp here in england, on youtube..and the mp was saying that ''conservatives must reject liberal orthodoxies?'' and i was wondering what was meant by that statement?

because i am on benefits for disablements i have, and i was fearing does that statement mean they want to do away with the welfare system, i would be against that obviously, because i rely on the welfare system because i am genuinly have disablements..and i think the welfare system should exist for those who are genuinly disabled?

anyway can anyone explain what this mp possibly meant by this statement '' conservatives must reject liberal orthodoxies? ''

thankyou.

Easy, there is not a Liberal MP anywhere that would use the word orthodoxies with good intention, they would use it to make you question the intent of those orthodox religious what their motives are. It's just changing the language back, and all about identity politics. Politics have become a sordid brand, and the MP is just trying to drum up votes using catch phrases. Nothing more, often they hold nothing original in thought (all politicians).
