Theresa, no, don’t do it.
Political photo ops are cringeworthy at the best of times, as Donald Trump is so fond of illustrating.
How about the colouring in disaster, or his failed attempts to operate a speakerphone?
From the second Theresa May awkwardly twisted a hip, you knew her dancing in Gugulethu earlier this week was going to be mocked. My sympathies are limited, because she seems like a pretty crummy human being, so I think we should all take a moment to enjoy some standout memes.
