Refusal (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

denial

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">refusal</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for denial that I've seen before include "Act of asserting that something alleged is not true" , "Refusal, abnegation" , "Negation" , "Refusal to accept an unpalatable truth" , "Saying it isn't so" .)

I've seen this clue in the Canadiana, The Times, The Telegraph, The Mirror and the Penny Press.
