Renegade, traitor (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

turncoat

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'renegade' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'traitor' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for turncoat that I've seen before include "Traitor, defector" , "One betraying party" , "Traitor with reversed garment" , "Deserter to opposition" , "Traitor with inverted garment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
