Crossword Genius

One charge makes us angry (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

irate

'angry' is the definition.
(irate can mean angry or annoyed)

'one charge' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'charge' becomes 'rate' (rate is a kind of charge).
'i'+'rate'='IRATE'

'makes us' is the link.

(Other definitions for irate that I've seen before include "Annoyed, irritated" , "A tier (anag)" , "raging" , "Mad" , "Ticked off" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
