Solution from politicians we rejected (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

answer

'solution' is the definition.
('answer' can be a synonym of 'solution')

'from politicians we rejected' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates a hidden word.
'ANSWER' is hidden within 'politicians we rejected'.

(Other definitions for answer that I've seen before include "Respond" , "fit" , "Reaction to a question" , "Be satisfactory" , "Solution (to problem)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
