How close are President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron?
They’ve moved past being on a first name basis.
Blair, in an interview with the Daily Mail, says that when Obama calls, he simply refers to him as “bro.”
Obama’s predecessor, George W. Bush, would often use “yo, Blair,” to greet the prime minister.
The leaders of the Right in the UK and the Left in the US found strong common ground. Like most Prime Ministers, he likes their approbation. ‘The President has said the special relationship is stronger than it has ever been privately and in public and I agree.’
The two “bros” have shared some significant friendly moments together.
For example, they’ve teamed up for some table tennis.

And there also was that time they teamed up for a highly-controversial selfie at Nelson Mandela’s funeral.
