Tangled cable ties? We won't have it! (9)

I believe the answer is:

celibates

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'we won't have it' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'tangled cable ties?' is the wordplay.
'tangled' indicates an anagram.
'cable'+'ties'='cableties'
'cableties' is an anagram of 'CELIBATES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for celibates that I've seen is " unmarried men?".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
