I believe the answer is:

asylum seeker

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'7 down from the hunter has left home and wants' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'live in ireland for example' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'live' could be 'l' (electrical abbreviation) and 'l' is found in the answer.
'example' could be 'as' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'as' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
