Laurent unfortunately indifferent (7)
I believe the answer is:
neutral
'indifferent' is the definition.
(I know this)
'laurent unfortunately' is the wordplay.
'unfortunately' indicates anagramming the letters (a bad or unfortunate spelling).
'laurent' anagrammed gives 'NEUTRAL'.
(Other definitions for neutral that I've seen before include "Not siding with any parties to a dispute" , "Run late (anag)" , "Impartial; colour" , "Having no personal preference" , "'Impartial, unbiased (7)'" .)
