Ross

I believe the answer is:

lech walesa

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

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

'from harlech wales appointed' is the wordplay.
'from' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'LECH WALESA' is hidden within 'harlech wales appointed'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for lech walesa that I've seen is " Polish statesman".)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
