I want to know the answer to the following question:
What type of group were the "king's friends"?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Burke identified the "discontents" as stemming from the "secret influence" of a neo-Tory group he labelled as, the "king's friends", whose system "comprehending the exterior and interior administrations, is commonly called, in the technical language of the Court, Double Cabinet".". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
