Yoko has no news about being solo (2,4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

on ones own

'being solo' is the definition.

'yoko has no news about' is the wordplay.
'yoko' becomes 'ono' (yoko ono).
'has' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'no'+'news'='nonews'
'nonews' anagrammed gives 'nesown'.
'ono'+'nesown'='ON ONES OWN'

(Other definitions for on ones own that I've seen before include "Helpless" , "Independently" , "Alone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
