Peers initially ignored vote? (3)
I believe the answer is:
yes
'vote?' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Pro vote ' mean 'yes' so perhaps 'vote' could also mean 'yes')
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yes that I've seen before include "Yea" , "Confirmation" , "Pro vote" , "Affirmative response" , "Absolutely" .)
