Promise to limit one rent’s rising in support of local area? (9,6)
I believe the answer is:
community spirit
'promise to limit one rent's rising in support' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'local area?' is the wordplay.
'local' becomes 'community' (similar in meaning).
'area?' becomes 'spirit' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'community'+'spirit'='COMMUNITY SPIRIT'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
