City to have Liberal MP worn out! (13)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wolverhampton

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

'city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'liberal mp worn out' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'liberal' could be 'l' (abbreviation) and 'l' is found within the answer.
'mp' is present in the answer.
'worn' could be 'on' (as in having clothes on) and 'on' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to have' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wolverhampton that I've seen before include "Midlands town" , "Town NW of Birmingham" , "West Midlands city" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
