Very good Quisling, cheers.

9a. Spurs stumped by short cross between pair
STIMULI

28a. In future, litter producer's self-reproach picked up
GILT

6a. Party's withdrawn Murphy
SPUD

7a. Sage's quiet place to hide boring routine
PRUDENT


Parses for the above please.

28 Google tells me that a GILT is a female pig who hasn't yet had a litter. Sounds like GUILT

6 DUP's (Democratic Unionist Party) reversed. Murphy and spud both refer to potatoes.

7 P DEN in RUT

9 is that all the clue?
ST - cricket abbreviation for stumped
MUL(e) short cross
Between two Is, but I don't see why that should be a pair?

I think just pair is two, so II

Re:9a, yes that's the full clue.

Thanks Jono
