Family where bumbling yahoos rule (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
royal house
'family' is the definition.
(I know that family can be written as royal house)
'bumbling yahoos rule' is the wordplay.
'bumbling' indicates an anagram.
'yahoos'+'rule'='yahoosrule'
'yahoosrule' anagrammed gives 'ROYAL HOUSE'.
'where' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
