that would be for a British aircraft for British jobs to win the election
There are no "British" aircraft MMA/MPA options available.

So you would opt for C130J or Airbus
Neither - both only exist on paper; so we would have to pick up the R&D costs. There are, realistically, only 2 options available in the short to medium term - the P8 and the CASA 295.
