New MP, one come to help folk in general (3,6,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

the common people

'folk in general' is the definition.

'new mp one come to help' is the wordplay.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'mp'+'one'+'come'+'to'+'help'='mponecometohelp'
'mponecometohelp' is an anagram of 'THE COMMON PEOPLE'.

I've seen this clue in The Times.
