Ships blue after redesign issues (9)
I believe the answer is:
publishes
'issues' is the definition.
(I know this)
'ships blue after redesign' is the wordplay.
'after redesign' indicates an anagram.
'ships'+'blue'='shipsblue'
'shipsblue' is an anagram of 'PUBLISHES'.
(Another definition for publishes that I've seen is " Issues".)
I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
