'group' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'hopes get dashed entertaining upper-class' is the wordplay.
'dashed' is an anagram indicator.
'entertaining' indicates putting letters inside (inviting in, as for dinner).
'upper-class' becomes 'u' (similar in meaning).
'hopes'+'get'='hopesget'
'hopesget' is an anagram of 'thepoges'.
'thepoges' going around 'u' is 'THE POGUES'.
