Speaker leaking head of state's post on social media (5)
I believe the answer is:
tweet
'post on social media' is the definition.
'tweet' can be an answer for 'post'. I am unsure of the 'on social media' bit.
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tweet that I've seen before include "Note from flier" , "Twitter" , "sound made by bird" , "Birdsong" , "Online communication" .)
