Came upon this whilst relaxing at Xmas and as sometimes happens with crosswords got through all except a 3 letter answer.
21D Bumble's law? _S_
Not that many words are 3 letters with S in the middle but can't relate any to the clue.
Answer with explanation much appreciated.

Ass - Mr Bumble in Oliver Twist states that "...The law is an ass..."

Many thanks.
I certainly recognise the phrase now you connect 'ass' and 'bumble' for me but I'm not a Dickens fan so doubt I'd have worked it out having already tried in vain to search the brain for connections to ash, asp, ass etc.
Thanks for freeing the brain for other Xword challenges over the festive season. Enjoy!
