A Conservative can be a million things. In Britain a Conservative is traditionally a 'right-of-centre' person who favours a free market, tough law and order stance and is sceptical of immigration or the EU for example.
In Russia? A Conservative is a former Communist who supports the renationalisation of all industries, a return of Soviet power and the USSR.

No thats what the Socialist BBC term Conservatives.
As for the Free Market thats more of a Classical Liberal concept than a Conservative one.
