Milliner suffering with sciatica dismisses one being critical of the cloth (15)
I believe the answer is:
anticlericalism
'critical of the cloth' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'milliner suffering with sciatica dismisses one' is the wordplay.
'suffering with' is an anagram indicator.
'dismisses' is a deletion indicator.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'sciatica' with 'i' taken out is 'scatica'.
'milliner' anagrammed with 'scatica' makes 'ANTICLERICALISM'.
'being' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for anticlericalism that I've seen is " Opposition to the church".)
