Spin chores out in suppression (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

censorship

'suppression' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'spin chores out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'spin'+'chores'='spinchores'
'spinchores' anagrammed gives 'CENSORSHIP'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for censorship that I've seen before include "restrictive practice" , "cleaning work?" , "Expurgation" , "Publishing restriction" , "System of classifying films, etc for suitability" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
