Where to find the truth about the TSR-2?

Can anybody direct me to reliable sources for dispassionate discussion of the TSR-2 story? What I have seen so far is hysterical discussion by nonpilot enthusiasts, many of them claiming the aircraft was the victim of the wildest conspiracy theories--British PMs being secret Commies, people being paid off by Kelly Johnson, etc. etc.

Nor have I seen a word written anywhere by an actual, experienced tactical fast-mover pilot. It seems to all be blather by 70-year-old lords or 20-year-old flightsim players...

I'm not just curious, I'm doing research for an article I'll be writing for Aviation History Magazine.
