Nationalist policy from monarch getting in scrap (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brexit

'nationalist policy' is the definition.
(the UK's exit from the European Union)

'monarch getting in scrap' is the wordplay.
'monarch' becomes 'rex' (I've seen this before).
'getting in' is an insertion indicator.
'scrap' becomes 'bit' (synonyms).
'rex' put inside 'bit' is 'BREXIT'.

'from' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
