Work for politicians (6)
I believe the answer is:
labour
'work for politicians' is the definition.
'labour' can be an answer for 'work' (labouring is a kind of working). I am not sure about the 'for politicians' bit.
'work for politicians' is the wordplay.
'work' becomes 'lab' (lab is a kind of work).
'for politicians' becomes 'our' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'lab'+'our'='LABOUR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for labour that I've seen before include "women have expected for months to be in" , "unnecessarily elaborate" , "Agonising time" , "Left - work" , "21 [PARTY] ?" .)
