English politician on way to board at Heathrow? (7)
I believe the answer is:
emplane
'board at heathrow?' is the definition.
(emplane can mean to get on a plane)
'english politician on way' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'politician' becomes 'MP' (Member of Parliament).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'way' becomes 'lane' (lane is a kind of way).
'e'+'mp'+'lane'='EMPLANE'
'to' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
