Theresa May trolled by EU boss Guy Verhofstadt over her ABBA dancing

The Prime Minister got her boogie on to 'Dancing Queen' as she shimmied onto the stage for her make-or-break conference speech yesterday.

She had the hall in stitches as she jigged – making fun of her awkward moves, which dominated her recent trip to Africa.

But EU boss Mr Verhofstadt evidently missed the funny side of her light-hearted move.

On Twitter last night he sneered: "While dancing to ABBA today, PM May overlooked the fact that Bjorn from ABBA called Brexit a 'disaster'."

He shared a link to the singer discussing why he wanted Britain to stay in the bloc, which was filmed before the referendum in 2016 where most Brits opted to leave.

But Winston Churchill's grandson Nicholas Soames was quick to hit back with a tweet saying: "#ohbuggeroff!"

And Sweden's ambassador praised her moves last night, saying: "I can only say Bravo to Theresa May for starting her conference speech with ABBA's Dancing Queen."

Mrs May's dancing yesterday sent the internet wild with hilarious memes.

Social media went into meltdown after she once again showed off her moves at the start of her speech this afternoon.

No. Even when we do it, it looks stupid.

The Tory leader went viral earlier this year after she danced with schoolchildren in South Africa – and didn't hesitate to show off her moves again as she took to the stage in Birmingham.

Sharing a meme of Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood, one joked: "I can only assume that the reason Theresa May is dancing so much recently is so that she has a shot at getting on Strictly in 2019 once she gets forced out."

Mrs May also used her speech to announce a freeze to fuel duty for another year, a council house revolution by lifting the cap on how much authorities can borrow – and revealed the pain of losing her goddaughter to cancer as she unveiled a new strategy to detect diseases earlier.
