Guests in Parliament: Conservative or Labour? (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
house party
'labour?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'guests in parliament conservative' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'parliament' could be 'house' (the House of Commons) and 'house' is located in the answer.
'conservative' could be 'party' (the Conservative or Tory Party is an example) and 'party' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'or' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for house party that I've seen is " Group of guests staying a few days".)
