'stop' is the definition.

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for desist that I've seen before include "Forbear" , "Refrain (from doing something)" , "Cease (from doing a thing)" , "Eject; annoyed" , "Leave off (doing a thing)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Irish Independent, The Mirror, The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, The Independent and The Guardian.
