7a "What some UK cities face, as reckless extreme wings of party turn back" (10)

?A?K?U?T?? Can only see BANKRUPTCY as the answer but struggling to parse.

4d "A bloody alternative route!" (6)

???A?S. If 7a is BANKRUPTCY then this looks like BYPASS

Any help much appreciated

I am still stuck on three, and so any clues would be greatly appreciated:

3d. Tender a*se enclosed in raunchy fringes (8)
I have ?U???H??

10a One who reveals broadcaster takes heroin (6)
I think this might be SHOWER, as SOWER with H initial of heroin.

15a Gives away drawers after live introduction (7)
I have ?E?R???

Thanks,

This is my last one. Is it MACHMETER? Speedometer that revolves.
But what has sacked Eurosceptic got to do with it?
I thought that was Bill Cash. CASHMETER? Any such word? I'm stumped too!
