Dramatist to have fun with the Conservatives? (10)
I believe the answer is:
playwright
'dramatist' is the definition.
('playwright' can be a synonym of 'dramatist')
'fun with the conservatives?' is the wordplay.
'fun' becomes 'play' ('play' can be a synonym of 'fun').
'with' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'the conservatives?' becomes 'right' (I've seen this in other clues).
'play'+'w'+'right'='PLAYWRIGHT'
'to have' is the link.
(Other definitions for playwright that I've seen before include "Coward, possibly" , "16 dn of dramas" , "Coward, for one" , "Coward, for example" , "Will, say" .)
