Andrew Selous Biography

Andrew Selous is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on April 27, 1962 in London, London, United Kingdom. Andrew Edmund Armstrong Selous /s ə ˈ l uː / (born 27 April 1962) is a Conservative Party politician in the United Kingdom who has been the Member of Parliament for South West Bedfordshire since the 2001 general election.

In 2006, Selous was promoted to Shadow Minister for Work and Pensions.

Selous chairs the All Party Parliamentary Group on Strengthening Couple Relationships, and argues that cross-party efforts to prevent family breakdown can relieve pressure on the care system. He was opposed to the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act 2013, arguing that it was directly contrary to what Jesus said.

He also attracted criticism in 2014 for reportedly telling a meeting that “disabled people work harder because they’re grateful to have a job”, following a furore over Lord Freud’s claim that some disabled people were not worth the minimum wage. Selous subsequently argued that he had simply been trying to convey the message that disabled people were valued by employers, and his observation that disabled people often work harder was supported by a spokesperson for Disability Rights UK.

Selous was first elected to the House of Commons in 2001, and had previously contested the Sunderland North seat in 1997. He is a director and prominent member of the Conservative Christian Fellowship.
