m?s?????p?????
I'm afraid I don't know much about Mr Clegg if the info would help me solve the clue. Perhaps it is a red herring.

Misappropriate?

I thought of that word but could not understand why it would be the answer. Can you please explain? Thanks

misappropriate?

nick = misappropriate, rest anagram minus "C"

The word means nick, or steal, and there is an anagram in there somewhere, I think!

Sorry. I am not seeing where the anagram can be formed, but I do agree that Misappropriate is a most appropriate word as an answer.
Thanks you all.

shouldn't this be an anagram of -

i (heart of coalition/middle letter) +
most papers +
arp (c[clegg] off /resigns from carp.

but this gives you an S you don't want, and denies you a 2nd i that you need.

heart coaliiton = ITIO
ITIO,PAPERS,CARP - C anagram = answer

Sorry! I mean ITI+MOST+PAPERS+CARP minus C
