Still haven't diagnosed it yet, i am ordering a new clutch master cylinder and 🤞.
I do think it's heat related though as when cold it works fine for 5-10 minutes then gradually gets worse, by 20 minutes it's completely locked up

I had trouble with my clutch master cylinder and whilst looking for a replacement heard the type used on MGCs and the large Triumphs were stronger plus easier to bleed. It cost noticeably less than the standard part but is a better component IMHO.
It needed a few mins work with a dremel in order to fit it to the B's pedal box and has been excellent.
