Stupidly, a Tory disengages when England celebrates (5,7,3)
I believe the answer is:
saint georges day
'england celebrates' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'stupidly a tory disengages' is the wordplay.
'stupidly' is an anagram indicator (a stupid ordering of the letters).
'a'+'tory'+'disengages'='atorydisengages'
'atorydisengages' with letters rearranged gives 'SAINT GEORGES DAY'.
'when' is the link.
