as posted by the channel

George Osborne tells Ed Balls that Boris Johnson's financial problems meant he had to write a book about Shakespeare to pay his tax bill during the pandemic. Did this mean the prime minister missed key COBRA meetings?

🎧 Listen to this episode of the Political Currency podcast

On Political Currency, Ed Balls and George Osborne take us behind closed doors into the rooms where decisions are made. Having battled it out across the despatch box, the former Chancellor and shadow chancellor now meet in the studio to discuss the decisions that affect the nation’s pockets.

Our frenemies have the knowledge and experience to explain how good politics follows the economics, and expose how the powerful become powerless when faced with market forces and political currents they can’t control. New episodes available every Thursday.
