Stands and procrastinates (6)
I believe the answer is:
stalls
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'stands' is the first definition.
('stall' can be a synonym of 'stand')
'procrastinates' is the second definition.
('stall' can be a synonym of 'procrastinate')
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for stalls that I've seen before include "Uses delaying tactics to gain time" , "Of engine, cuts out" , "Deliberately delays" , "Compartments in stables or theatres" , "Theatre seats nearest the stage" .)
