Jeryny Corbyn!

I know I'm being silly but have you checked that all your letters are correct?

If it was 4, 6, 11 the same and
2, 12 the same
I would suggest Arlene Foster

Yes I think they are correct
this is from a 'codeword crossword' where each letter of the alphabet is given a letter. And they only give ONE letter in the whole puzzle as letter B == 24 (I know that doesnt relate to this question but the actual puzzle answer is
16, 12, 4, 8, 22, 8 then 2nd word==7, 13, 6, 17, 8, 12
so 4th & 6th of 1st word ==5th of 2nd word
and 2nd of 1st word & last of 2nd word are same.

The only other UNRELATED answer needed is a 4 letter word ending in letter 'B' with the 2nd & 3rd letters the same
I have only come up with LEEB
The 2 middle letters have to be the same as the first letter of the politicians name. Therefore presumably a vowel

Other suggestions for the 4-letter word are

BEEB
DOOB
LOOB

all are valid words

If it is 16, 12, 4, 8, 22, 8 then 2nd word==7, 13, 6, 17, 8, 12:

Then Arlene Foster does fit as 2nd and 12th letters are the same, not 5th and 12th as you said originally.

Thanks all. That was a difficult Xword
Arlene Foster works OK & I just googled ? A A B which turns out to be RAAB as in Dominic RAAB, MP
