Crossword Genius

I am incomplete and neutral (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

impartial

'neutral' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'i am incomplete' is the wordplay.
'i am' becomes 'I'm' (contraction).
'incomplete' becomes 'partial' (similar in meaning).
'im'+'partial'='IMPARTIAL'

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for impartial that I've seen before include "Fair, unprejudiced" , "Showing lack of favouritism" , "not taking sides" , "Objective" , "Treating all rivals equally" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
