Scruple (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

qualm

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">scruple</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for qualm that I've seen before include "Misgiving, pang of conscience" , "Anxiety" , "Sudden feeling of unease or misgiving" , "Uneasiness, doubt" , "Uneasy feeling" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
