The results of a party game (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

consequences

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

'the results' is the definition.
(consequence is a kind of result)

'a party game' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'party' could be 'con' (abbreviation for Conservatives) and 'con' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'sequences' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for consequences that I've seen is " Results -- parlour game".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
