7:44Now PlayingRifts, rivalries, betrayal and the brokering of deals. Those seem to be the dominant themes in political relationships. But what makes -- and keeps -- friendship in the ruthless world of government and leadership? George Osborne and Ed Balls talk about some of the great political allegiances and how friends were prevented from turning into foes. In particular, George reveals how his friendship with former Prime Minister David Cameron, and the unspoken understanding they had that meant it was able to be sustained for so long.
