I believe the answer is:

provocation

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'something to make one angry' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'in favour of calling' is the wordplay.
'in favour of' becomes 'pro' (being pro a particular cause).
'calling' becomes 'vocation' (a vocation is a calling).
'pro'+'vocation'='PROVOCATION'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for provocation that I've seen before include "Cause" , "Annoying action" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
