One in secret coup destroyed ERG politician? (11)
I believe the answer is:
eurosceptic
'one in secret coup destroyed erg politician?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'one in secret coup destroyed' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'destroyed' indicates an anagram.
'secret'+'coup'='secretcoup'
'secretcoup' with letters rearranged gives 'eurosceptc'.
'i' put into 'eurosceptc' is 'EUROSCEPTIC'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eurosceptic that I've seen before include "one not keen on Brussels" , "One against being "ruled from Brussels"" , "Nationalist" , "Cup tie score (anag) - Nigel Farage, perhaps" , "One opposed to closer links with our Continental neighbours" .)
