Mr Livingstone has little time for this county (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kent

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

'this county' is the definition.
(Kent is an example)

'mr livingstone has little time' is the wordplay.
'mr livingstone' becomes 'ken' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'little time' becomes 't' (abbreviation for time).
'ken'+'t'='KENT'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for kent that I've seen before include "Lear's faithful Earl" , "County; punting pole" , "Canterbury's county" , "One of the Home Counties" , "Home county" .)
