Another Leeson rattling a few English banks (7,4)
I believe the answer is:
someone else
'another' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'leeson rattling a few english banks' is the wordplay.
'rattling' is an anagram indicator.
'a few' becomes 'some' (both can mean a small amount of something).
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'banks' is an insertion indicator (bank can mean to surround or border).
'some'+'e'='somee'
'leeson' anagrammed gives 'oneels'.
'oneels' going into 'somee' is 'SOMEONE ELSE'.
