Second meeting in an ethical way (7)
I believe the answer is:
morally
'in an ethical way' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'second meeting' is the wordplay.
'second' becomes 'mo' (both are short periods of time).
'meeting' becomes 'rally' (I have seen 'Mass meeting ' mean 'rally' so perhaps 'meeting' could also mean 'rally').
'mo'+'rally'='MORALLY'
(Another definition for morally that I've seen is " To all intents and purposes - in terms of right and wrong".)
I've seen this clue in The Daily Mail.
