Do for the politicians? (5)
I believe the answer is:
party
'do' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for party that I've seen before include "eg Labour, Conservative" , "Celebratory social gathering" , "Festivity" , "See 22" , "push the boat out" .)
