WILDE looks fine - broad = WIDE frames novice = L
2d: maybe RURAL - Michael Meacher has had ministerial responsibility for rural affairs in the past (but that is a bit of a soft link for a clue like this)

Many thanks! I should have seen why it must be Wilde and then rural is the only possibility for 2d.
i'm not happy with my possible explanation but nothing else comes to mind (yet)
Meacher still is the MP though for Oldham West.
William Cobbett wrote Rural Rides and was Oldham MP
Well done, scorpiojo- I started to look back for past MPs but didn't go back before WW1
Probably rural
Rural Rides ..by William Cobbett elected as Member of Parliament for Oldham in 1882.
i'm ashamed of my otiose explanation
It was just luck (and Google) ff :)
