Man forcefully expelling one with ill will (12)
I believe the answer is:
malevolently
'forcefully expelling one with ill will' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'man' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'man' could be 'ole' and 'ole' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for malevolently that I've seen is " with ill-will".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
