Common people (6)
I believe the answer is:
rabble
'common people' is the definition.
(rabble is a kind of common people)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for rabble that I've seen before include "Person who stirs up feeling of mob" , "A mob of riffraff" , "Unruly mob" , "Leaderless mob" , "Disorderly noisy crowd of people" .)
