Obtain expert on those coming first in voters’ eyes such as Greens? (9)
I believe the answer is:
vegetable
'greens?' is the definition.
(greens is a kind of vegetable)
'obtain expert on those coming first in voters' eyes' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'obtain' could be 'get' (synonyms) and 'get' is found within the answer.
'expert' could be 'able' (able can mean expert or talented) and 'able' is found within the answer.
'first in voters'' could be 'v' (1st letter of 'voters') and 'v' is found within the answer.
A single letter 'e' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'such as' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vegetable that I've seen before include "Plant with edible parts" , "Squash for one" , "dull inactive person?" , "rocket, perhaps" , "Food plant" .)
