Costs hit this nationality badly (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scottish

'costs hit this nationality badly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scottish that I've seen before include "northern folk" , "From north of the border" , "Caledonian" , "So stitch up to be like Angus or Jock" , "From the northern UK" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
