Pontius,
The reason I have included my personal opinions in the post is because this will be my hypothesis for the research paper. I'm sure some people will agree and some disagree that's the whole point of the research. As I said my hypothesis could be disproved.
Let me stress, I don't want this thread to turn into the rights and wrongs of the cancellation. It has been done and that's not the purpose of this thread. My research will be available at the end of January. All my statements will be substantiated with detailed quantitative and qualitative research with supplementary evidence from defence experts in London.
I have no political affiliations of any kind.
Grant.
