Drunken mob rage during prohibition (7)
I believe the answer is:
embargo
'prohibition' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'drunken mob rage' is the wordplay.
'drunken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'mob'+'rage'='mobrage'
'mobrage' anagrammed gives 'EMBARGO'.
'during' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for embargo that I've seen before include "Order forbidding ships to enter or leave port, and a ban on trade" , "Trading ban" , "Ban, veto" , "Order intended to prevent trade" , "Government trade ban" .)
