Not taking sides as late run organized (7)
I believe the answer is:
neutral
'not taking sides' is the definition.
(not taking sides in a dispute)
'late run organized' is the wordplay.
'organized' is an anagram indicator.
'late'+'run'='laterun'
'laterun' anagrammed gives 'NEUTRAL'.
'as' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for neutral that I've seen before include "Not partisan or supporting either side in dispute" , "trying to keep out of the war" , "Bland" , "gear drivers are still in" , "Taking neither side" .)
