SOLVED if anyone is interested:

I managed to fix this issue by extending the class my original sendGet(final String url) was in as follows HttpClientUsage extends AsyncTask more information and a tutorial can be found here: AsyncTask tutorial

I then had to configure my CORS settings on my local REST API as follows:

 cors:
        allowed-origins: "*"
        allowed-methods: GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS
        allowed-headers: "*"
        exposed-headers:
        allow-credentials: true
        max-age: 1800

Thank you all for your help, it is much appreciated.
