Lots of bananas for the workers (5)
I believe the answer is:
hands
'the workers' is the definition.
(hand is a kind of worker)
'lots of bananas for' is the wordplay.
'lots of' means to remove the last letter (the majority of the word).
'bananas' becomes 'hand' (I've seen this before).
'for' becomes 'ds' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'hand' with its last letter taken off is 'han'.
'han'+'ds'='HANDS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hands that I've seen before include "Units for measuring horse's height" , "Body parts; crewmen" , "Passes" , "Gives" , "Cards given out in deal" .)
