Tory woman in support for corporation? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

truss

I believe this is a double definition.

'tory woman' is the first definition.
(Conservative politician Liz Truss)

'support for corporation?' is the second definition.
(support for a hernia - corporation can mean fat)

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for truss that I've seen before include "Corbel, in architecture" , "Tie up tightly; frame" , "Tie up tight" , "advocate of proper punctuation" , "US state" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
