Criticise rubbish newspaper working to secure closure of council estate (10)
I believe the answer is:
plantation
'estate' is the definition.
(plantation is a kind of estate)
'criticise rubbish newspaper working to secure closure of council' is the wordplay.
'criticise' becomes 'pan' (informal term meaning to criticise heavily).
'rubbish newspaper' becomes 'tati' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'working' becomes 'on' (e.g. a machine is working or on).
'to secure' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are secured inside).
'closure of' suggests the final letters.
The last letter of 'council' is 'l'.
'pan'+'tati'+'on'='pantation'
'pantation' going around 'l' is 'PLANTATION'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for plantation that I've seen before include "growth area" , "land for crops" , "Coffee-growing estate" , "Cotton, slave, estate" , "settlement" .)
