Principle, belief (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tenet

I believe this is a double definition.

'principle' is the first definition.
(a tenet is a principle or value)

'belief' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for tenet that I've seen before include "A belief or creed - a palindrome" , "Key principle" , "A palindromic doctrine or creed" , "Dogma or principle" , "Doctrine held to be true" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
