Country folk truss liar up (9)
I believe the answer is:
ruralists
'country folk' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'truss liar up' is the wordplay.
'up' is an anagram indicator (letters get chucked up).
'truss'+'liar'='trussliar'
'trussliar' anagrammed gives 'RURALISTS'.
(Another definition for ruralists that I've seen is " Country folk".)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
