Private Eye 606

[Neveracrossword]

2 Down. Name one put on ugly rear is like a clear position on Brexit? (2,6) ?o ?e?r?r

[Captain2]

N-o ne-arer

[Lie-in King]

No nearer - 'n(ame) one' + anag 'rear'

[Captain2]

that doesn't read well like that

Name = N
One = ONE
Anagram of rear = ARER

[cashier]

No nearer n name onerear anag

[zebo]

No Nearer N one arer Name, one,rear (anagram)

I've bought Private Eye for more than 40 years. Can I just say that on the most recent cover (25 Aug-7 Sept), Camilla is pictured as saying "The anniversary isn't going so well". Charles says: "It's a car crash", I found it loathsome.
