Even Daniel Defoe, the English government spy employed by Robert Harley, the most powerful minister behind the Union project, Secretary of State and the chief architect of the Union strategy, admitted the truth: Scotland opposed the Union.

If the chief architect of the Union's own intelligence operative could not find a pro-Union Scotland, perhaps the real fiction is the claim that Scotland freely chose annexation.
