Ridicule, derision (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mockery

I believe this is a double definition.

'ridicule' is the first definition.
(mockery is a kind of ridicule)

'derision' is the second definition.
(I know that mockery is a type of derision)

(Other definitions for mockery that I've seen before include "Ridicule" , "Derision" , "Travesty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
