Tidings of woe (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
bad news
'tidings of woe' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for bad news that I've seen before include "not taken to Aix" , "Undesirable person" , "troublemaker" , "dope travelling fast?" , "Someone undesirable (slang)" .)
