Still getting plea for help about new Government services (9)
I believe the answer is:
evensongs
'services' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'still getting plea for help about new government' is the wordplay.
'still getting' becomes 'even' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'plea for help' becomes 'sos' (Save Our Souls distress message).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'new' becomes 'n' (abbreviation as in New Testament NT).
'government' becomes 'g' (abbreviation for government).
'n'+'g'='ng'
'sos' placed around 'ng' is 'songs'.
'even'+'songs'='EVENSONGS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for evensongs that I've seen is " Church services".)
