Independent Ireland -- only some wanted or all? (6)
I believe the answer is:
entire
'all?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'independent ireland only some wanted' is the wordplay.
'only some wanted' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ENTIRE' can be found hidden inside 'independent ireland'.
'or' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for entire that I've seen before include "With no part left out" , "Whole; unbroken" , "excluding nothing" , "Whole; absolute" , "Whole and complete" .)
