Discontinue honour associated with that in French monarchy (8)
I believe the answer is:
queendom
'monarchy' is the definition.
(state ruled by a queen)
'discontinue honour associated with that in french' is the wordplay.
'discontinue' becomes 'end' (I've seen this in another clue).
'honour' becomes 'om'.
'associated with' says to put letters next to each other.
'that in french' becomes 'que' ('that' in French).
'end'+'om'='endom'
'endom' after 'que' is 'QUEENDOM'.
I've seen this clue in The Times.
