Clue is:
PM meets resistance in city - it may be a bitter blow (9)

Answer is: NORTHERLY

Anyone know why? Yes, a northerly wind is bitter. Is the city NY? What's the PM reference?
Thanks

lord north was a pm - 19th century, i think - the r - resistance - in ely - a city as it has a cathedral

18th century, in fact

Brilliant thanks. I didn't know about Lord North and I was barking up today wrong tree with New York. Cheers

Bloody predictive texting....'barking up the wrong tree' I meant.
