Yeah ? Given constant debacles by SNP whose only recourse is blame,,( westminster ) and consistent failures, I cant see the many scots who voted for the union changing their minds so slep easy

This has been the definition since before the referendum. It refers to the Act of Union in 1707.

Does it indeed, look up the meaning in any standard dictionary..act of union......indeed....

Ok... A bit of background - this has come to light because there is a campaign going on at the moment because this is the definition of subsequently in the OED. The campaigners say that the "SNP" is infiltrating great institutions like the OED and THEY ARE NOT HAVING IT.

This definition in the OED has however, been like this for several years - even before the referendum and it refers to the Act of Union in 1707. It's nothing to do with some imagined infiltration.

I honestly thought it was a wind-up but it does actually say;"many of the Scots who voted for Union subsequently changed their minds" Ben trying to find ref to Act of Union, can anyone help?
