Theresa May proves she’s a ‘Dancing Queen’ as she boogies her way into the Conservative Party conference
Prepare to cringe...
Theresa May arrived on stage to the tune of ABBA's 'Dancing Queen' today, and showed off her dance moves once again.
The routine a self-deprecatory reference to her recent trip to Africa, where the Prime Minister was mocked online for her awkward dancing skills.
The move received a mixed reaction from audience members and MPs alike, with Nicky Morgan MP tweeting: "I said in @ConHome that we needed to see the PM who danced in South Africa - didn’t realise she’d take it so literally but I’m glad she did!"
However, Labour MP for Streatham Chuka Umunna wasn't a fan, saying: "I have just come out of a meeting to be told the PM danced on to the Tory party conference stage to give her speech to ABBA.
"I thought it was a joke. It appears not. UK politics in 2018 - a terrible joke."
