A butchery firm owned by a combine? (5,7)
I believe the answer is:
joint concern
'owned by a combine?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'a butchery firm' is the wordplay.
'a butchery' becomes 'joint' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'firm' becomes 'concern' (both can mean an business).
'joint'+'concern'='JOINT CONCERN'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Irish News.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
