Hi!

So I'm stumped on these last two:

Covering back, a politician given to stalling (8) _I_A_O__

Casual habits causing leader in police force to break state up (7) ___A_A_

Any handy hints on how to parse them out.

Parse the Mic. Parsed the point of no return. Parse Brosnan. Parse the dutchie 'pon the left hand side.

given to stalling, and,
Casual habits are the definitions.

...pa's thrashed me for the last time!

Covering back = LID (rev)
a pol = A TORY

def re trevor

leader in police = P
force = JAM
to break (container)
state up (rev) = SAY

P+Y(JAM)AS

Gee, an anagram of PARSE is your name. (-;

OK, how about explaining these two:

Parse the Mic.

on the left side ?

um, nothing to explain tbh. it was late/early and my mind was wandering. both big tunes tho.

Cheers for the clues guys. Should have got 4d, but I came on here through Force of Habit.

Jam

By the way, your name is extremely silly, zany and goofy.
