Politician in new test case appeals (6)
I believe the answer is:
tempts
'case appeals' is the definition.
'tempts' can be an answer for 'appeals' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'case' bit.
'politician in new test' is the wordplay.
'politician' becomes 'MP' (Member of Parliament).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'new' is an anagram indicator.
'test' anagrammed gives 'tets'.
'mp' going inside 'tets' is 'TEMPTS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tempts that I've seen before include "Induces to stray from the path of duty" , "Attracts; entices" , "Lures or attracts" , "Entices to do something unwise" , "Appeals" .)
