Wants (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

needs

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">wants</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(needing is a kind of wanting)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for needs that I've seen before include "Requires, is in want of" , "Essentials" , "Demands" , "What we require" , "Necessities" .)

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