Cryptic clues = station name

[johnnychips]

Thanks Dale.

Here’s a topical one:

Head of Labour starts, created to represent this station, with closer links to Europe possible.

 

[John Griffiths]

Starcross? Starmer crossing the Channel.

 

[johnnychips]

No, right politician, but it’s a tube station.

 

[johnnychips]

The politician has links with the station being sought (defined cryptically) and another (defined factually).

 

[johnnychips]

Where does he represent?

 

[johnnychips]

Initially, he overcame losers Buckland or Rees-Mogg; now at this station the future is his.

I know very little about politics (thankfully) but is an mp or pm Hon ? Thereby sticking the initials lbor from losers Buckland or Rees in the centre might reveal Holborn.

It certainly does. His constituency is Holborn and St Pancras, which explains the European connection in the first clue.

I declare it to be your go.

Thank-you. Pleased to say I am firmly established in my seat at the moment.

Ruddy cold in this area in winter. The icy winds can create a snow drift here.

 

[Loppylugs]

Juicy little anagram in there folks.

The anagram is "create a snow". If nobody bothers by 10pm I shall give the answer. Off to count penguins at the South Pole for a while......see you later.

I tried to come up with a clever, testing clue. Needless to say, I failed, so here's a nice simple one.
