Ken King, new member of parliament, meets creep (9)

I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Fifteensquared have:

K (abbreviation for king) + N (abbreviation for new) + OWL (member of parliament; an old crossword joke, from the collective noun “a parliament of owls”) + EDGE (as a verb = creep = move slowly and carefully). As in “beyond my ken” = an old word for knowledge or understanding, particularly in Scottish and Northern English dialects.
