British Prime Minister Theresa May made an unusual stage entrance for a keynote speech yesterday.

May, who captured headlines for her robotic dancing during a visit to Kenya in August, was under pressure to put on a good show at her Conservati­ve Party’s annual conference.

But she was applauded by the hall yesterday as she danced to the 1976 Europop hit, which she has previously told interviewe­rs is one of her favourite songs.

Online reactions were less compliment­ary of May’s moves. Labour MP Angela Rayner wrote: “I use to love the Dancing Queen by Abba #Cringe” accompanie­d with a sad emoji.
