Correspond with a nameless politician (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agree

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

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

'a nameless politician' is the wordplay.
'nameless politician' becomes 'gree' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'a'+'gree'='AGREE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for agree that I've seen before include "'Assent, concur (5)'" , "'Birds in their little nest . . . . .'" , "Allow" , "grant" , "concede" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
