Swiss community against admitting worker (6)
I believe the answer is:
canton
'swiss community' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'against admitting worker' is the wordplay.
'against' becomes 'con' (as in pros and cons).
'admitting' indicates putting letters inside (admit can mean to welcome in or accept).
'worker' becomes 'ant' (worker is a type of ant).
'con' going around 'ant' is 'CANTON'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for canton that I've seen before include "Swiss state" , "Administrative division of Switzerland" , "Area of Switzerland" , "Old 5 [CHINESE] city" , "Old Chinatown" .)
