Utter prerogative (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

right

This clue is a double definition.

'utter' is the first definition.
(both can mean complete or total)

'prerogative' is the second definition.
(a prerogative is a legal right)

(Other definitions for right that I've seen before include "One has a claim to be correct" , "Morally defensible" , "Morally good; rectify" , "OK?" , "blue, politically" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
