I know we’re getting off the original request from Norahs Lad, but the fact that the Labour government scrapped the TSR2 needs to be enlightened on:
Just a couple of months before the then general election, labour party officials were standing outside the entrance gates and handing out leaflets which where it stated very clearly "That if a labour government were to be elected, then the TSR2 would NOT be scrapped"
Incidentally a very good link.
