Go Conservative - nothing to lose! (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

try

'go' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'conservative nothing to lose' is the wordplay.
'conservative' becomes 'tory' (I've seen this before).
'nothing' becomes 'o' (looks like zero - 0).
'to lose' is a deletion indicator.
'tory' with 'o' removed is 'TRY'.

(Other definitions for try that I've seen before include "Go" , "Examine" , "Attempt a score" , "Endeavour" , "Gorse" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
