Head of government preparing us badly for period of reform (6,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

prague spring

'period of reform' is the definition.
(1968 protest movement in Czechoslovakia)

'head of government preparing us badly' is the wordplay.
'head of' says to take the initial letters.
'badly' is an anagram indicator.
The first letter of 'government' is 'g'.
'g'+'preparing'+'us'='gpreparingus'
'gpreparingus' anagrammed gives 'PRAGUE SPRING'.

'for' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
