Urged fiscal reforms: awful (11)
I believe the answer is:
disgraceful
'awful' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'urged fiscal reforms' is the wordplay.
'reforms' indicates anagramming the letters.
'urged'+'fiscal'='urgedfiscal'
'urgedfiscal' is an anagram of 'DISGRACEFUL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for disgraceful that I've seen before include "Abominable - scandalous" , "Dishonourable" , "far from honourable" , "Shockingly unacceptable" .)
