Constructor's Note
Note for solvers outside the UK: in 2024 we Brits elected Sir Keir Starmer to lead the country as Prime Minister. This may come in handy for 1 Across.

    Ahem. I somehow missed 8A from the wash-up. It's hidden in "meduSASSYmbolically", of course.

      Hello solvers, and thank you once again for taking the time to grapple with my monkey business. If you solved it - or you enjoyed what you solved - go ahead and hit the like button above 👍 and feel free to let me know how you got on. In the meantime, here's the wash-up:
      ACROSS. 1A. Shorten "Biden" = JOE, remove a central letter from "Starmer" = KE(I)R. 4A. Shorten "question my sexuality" = AM I GAY? 7A. "Former partner" = EX, reversal of "great deal" = LOT.
      DOWN. 1D. "Monkeys" = APES, below "Jack" = J. 2D. Cryptic def. 3D. Deletion of "drug" = E from "I doubt it" = REALLY? 5D. "Minutes" = M, outer letters of "inbox" = IX. 6D. Shorten "continue" = GO ON.
