Mass meeting to ditch right and form union (4)
I believe the answer is:
ally
'form union' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'mass meeting to ditch right' is the wordplay.
'mass meeting' becomes 'rally' (synonyms).
'to ditch' suggests deleting specific letters.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'rally' with 'r' taken out is 'ALLY'.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ally that I've seen before include "Crony" , "Collaborator, affiliate" , "Join forces with" , "mate" , "Friend and colleague" .)
