OK, OK, Peter - I heard you the first time!
It has been proved. An internet search will verify this. EG - Wikipedia:
Red squirrels are tree-dwelling omnivorous rodents that are frequently found throughout Eurasia. In Britain, however, numbers have decreased drastically due to the introduction of the eastern grey squirrel from North America.
The precise cause of the displacement is still being investigated, but the displacement is definitely taking place. The Nature Conservancy people may be able to give you the stats on this.
