Thunberg annoyed after losing right to communicate (3,6)

I believe the answer is:

get across

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

'communicate' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'thunberg annoyed after losing right' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'annoyed' could be 'cross' (cross can mean angry) and 'cross' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'geta' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for get across that I've seen before include "Clearly explain" , "go over viaduct, say" , "Express" , "Manage to communicate" , "what crucifer must do first of all" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
