A good TSR-2 potted history site can be found on Damien Burke's "Thunder

I think that TSR-2 was cancelled by an aircraft-industry-hating Labour
government,


Considering the person who ultimately authorised it also happened to be
head of the board of trade when RR Nenes and Derwents were swapped for
russian timber freely available in the Sterling zone. One could ascribe
motives a lot more sinister than just hating the aircraft industry.
