Gang deployed Emile to pinch house trailer (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mobile home

'trailer' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'gang deployed emile to pinch house' is the wordplay.
'gang' becomes 'mob' (synonyms).
'deployed' is an anagram indicator.
'to pinch' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'emile' is an anagram of 'ileme'.
'ileme' enclosing 'ho' is 'ilehome'.
'mob'+'ilehome'='MOBILE HOME'

(Other definitions for mobile home that I've seen before include "Large caravan for permanent residence" , "Caravan maybe" , "House on wheels?" , "Permanently-used caravan" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
