European politician fills in words of Conservative expecting obedience (10)
I believe the answer is:
peremptory
'european' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are adjectives, I can't see how one could define the other.
'politician fills in words of conservative expecting obedience' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'politician' could be 'tory' (term for a Conservative Party politician) and 'tory' is found within the answer.
'conservative' could be 'mp' (Member of Parliament) and 'mp' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'pere' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for peremptory that I've seen before include "Commanding" , "Brusque, imperious" , "Assertive" , "Autocratic, dictatorial" , "Final" .)
