Junior member of parliament? (5)
I believe the answer is:
owlet
'junior member of parliament?' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'member of parliament?' is the wordplay.
'member' becomes 'owl' (I have seen 'Member of Parliament' mean 'owl' so perhaps 'member' could also mean 'owl').
'of parliament?' becomes 'et' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'owl'+'et'='OWLET'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for owlet that I've seen before include "Wise baby bird?" , "Wise avian's youngster?" , "One may give a little screech" , "Baby nocturnal raptor" , "Nestling" .)
