Unwise outbreak? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rash

This clue is a double definition.

'unwise' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'outbreak?' is the second definition.
(rash can mean a sudden outbreak)

(Other definitions for rash that I've seen before include "Ill-considered - outbreak" , "Flood" , "complaint" , "Red area on skin" , "Ill-considered - break-out" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
