Confederates (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allies

'confederates' is the definition.
('ally' can be a synonym of 'confederate')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for allies that I've seen before include "Co-operating states" , "Countries working together" , "Colleagues" , "Partners or confederates" , "Joins forces" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
