Was Boris ignoring some court order (4)
I believe the answer is:
asbo
'court order' is the definition.
(ASBO is short for anti-social behaviour order)
'was boris ignoring some' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ASBO' is hidden in the letters of 'was boris ignoring'.
(Other definitions for asbo that I've seen before include "Punitive order" , "troublemaker's punishment" , "Order made for bad behaviour" , "Sanction for bad behaviour (init.)" , "Court restraining order" .)
