Unruly as well as disregarding authority’s lead? (7)
I believe the answer is:
lawless
'unruly' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lawless that I've seen before include "Anarchic, without any controls" , "Without rules" , "disobedient" , "insubordinate" , "Ungoverned" .)
