I'm George Osborne and I'm Ed Balls. We've been at the heart of British politics for some decades.

And I guess we do know how it really works. Yeah, and that's why we started this podcast political currency to give you the inside story to tell you how things actually happen.

And there's no spin and no waffle in our podcast.

Look, I'm not totally sure that is quite right on the waffle,

but definitely straight talking analysis from two people who've been in the room

when the big calls are made.

Yeah, we often disagree, but we always say what we think.

So if you are serious about politics, this is the podcast for you.

New episodes are out every Monday and Thursday.

Search political currency wherever you get your podcasts and of course on YouTube.

standards, very left-wing mayor, Zoran Nandami. And you are a journalist, you've written for

The Spectator, you're a former editor of the New York Post, but you've also been working on the Eric Adams campaign, Eric Adams is the current mayor of New York, who has just stepped down from the race.

That's correct.
