27a "Tories, say, needing time to replace Right and water down members' cover-up" = Pantyhose. I can understand the 'hose' bit, but where does the 'panty' come from?

[dannyk13]

tory= party , replace r with t

[kayakamina]

Party ( tories) with N (noon/time) replacing R (right)

[bibblebub]

definitely 'time' in the clue?

'tories, say' could be PARTY so need to replace the R = right in that to N

[chelle7272]

party (tories) - replace the r (right) with n (noon)

Of course, easy when you know how! Many thanks to all
