Pimp linking minister to a parliamentarian (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

revamp

'pimp' is the definition.

'linking minister to a parliamentarian' is the wordplay.
'linking' says to put letters next to each other.
'minister' becomes 'rev' (I've seen this before**).
'parliamentarian' becomes 'mp'.
'rev'+'a' is 'reva'.
'reva'+'mp'='REVAMP'

(Other definitions for revamp that I've seen before include "new arrangement" , "Give new form to" , "Make new, improve or up-date" , "get in better shape" , "Patch up or renovate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
