Dealing with Labour, bitter, so involved with Conservative (9)
I believe the answer is:
obstetric
'dealing with labour' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'bitter so involved with conservative' is the wordplay.
'involved with' indicates anagramming the letters (involved can mean confusing or complex).
'conservative' becomes 'C' (UK political abbreviation).
'bitter'+'so'='bitterso'
'bitterso' mixed up with 'c' can make 'OBSTETRIC'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for obstetric that I've seen before include "Reproductive" , "Managing birth" , "of maternity care" , "dealing with babies" , "for pregnant woman?" .)
