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

'mr jones let's nominate' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'new deal' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'deal' anagrammed gives 'ALED'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
