Why Britain bought only part of its planned Skyraider fleet

What stopped Britain buying the remaining 46 of its planned 96 Skyraiders?

Most likely Treasury pressure to save money rather than a technical or doctrinal objection to the aircraft.

Budget cutting as the likely cause of the short purchase. Britain planned for 96 aircraft but acquired only 50, leaving a sizeable gap between the force requirement and the delivered fleet. The speakers do not cite a technical failure or a change in airborne-early-warning doctrine. Their concise conclusion is that the Treasury accepted reduced capability to save a comparatively small amount of money.
