Man wets oats, cooks for female political leader (11)
I believe the answer is:
stateswoman
'political leader' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'man wets oats cooks' is the wordplay.
'cooks' is an anagram indicator.
'man'+'wets'+'oats'='manwetsoats'
'manwetsoats' is an anagram of 'STATESWOMAN'.
'for female' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stateswoman that I've seen before include "Diplomat" , "Politician" , "Political figure" , "Political leader" .)
