It’s stop as in a stopgap, to plug a hole. Of coursem you could argue that plugging the gap in ‘TOT RAINING’ with ‘I LET’ would give TOTI LETRAINING!

This practice, one obstacle to stop baby wetting things! (6, 8) I presume ‘stop’ can mean “put ‘itot’ in ‘totraining’” but I can’t see why at the minute. Excellent puzzle as usual.

Excellent puzzle, I agree. There was a wordplay element to Toilet training. I don’t have the paper in front of me so don’t have the clue to hand, but it was something along the lines of I LET (one obstacle) in TOT RAINING (child pouring with water or something). So it was actually a semi +lit, with some reference as to how to prevent said accident at the front.

given the Liberal Party agenda, someone needs to step up and tell us what’s on the agenda at a Labour Party and for the that matter a Conservative party (not much presumably).
