wiki traitors

What do you call someone who secretly reports back about his own government to a foreign power?

Yes, it is an 's' word, but in Australia, apparently, it's 'Senator', as in Senator Mark Arbib, rather than the more common term, 'spy'.

In many countries, not only would people like Arbib be treated as spies, but their acts of deceit would be viewed as a crime, and a serious one at that - treason.

How can anyone ever again trust Arbib, or the others named in WikiLeaks (such as my 'hometown' member Michael Danby), to have a say in the running of our country, when their loyalties are clearly shared with a foreign nation? They should resign in shame, or be kicked out of parliament.
