Hello one and all, only a few left, and a few I got the answers but I'm not sure why....here we go:

Asian Christian mostly upset Japanese people (4) A_NU
Summon Jack to catch parrot? On the contrary (7) CON_U_E

Fruit in Brazilian dish father's abandoned = FEIJOA but why?
Adam Smith's preserve involves inflation measure showing U turn = HAIRPIN but why?

Thanks everyone

1 Ainu?

I think it may be CONJURE: con may be to catch, J for Jack

I agree it probably is AINU but what has that to do with an Asian Christian mostly upset?

[doctordolittle]

Conure is a type of parrot, so J for jack = conjure.

Re Hairpin - Hain is a Scottish word for 'preserve' and RPI, the Retail Price Index (inflation measure) is put in. Hai rpi n. Hairpin is the U turn.

Fruit in...Feijoada is a Brazilian dish - remove the D for Dad and you get the fruit, Feijoa.
