Ross

cabinet

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

This could be a double definition.

'ministerial' is the first definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'furniture' is the second definition.
(I know that cabinet is a type of furniture)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cabinet that I've seen before include "Item of furniture for storage or display" , "Display cupboard - senior ministers" , "Peel once topped this" , "PM's team" , "The place to display" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
