There has been widespread consternation as UK Prime Minister decided to demonstrate her dance steps yet again. After proving herself far from being twinkletoes during a tour of Africa, she decided to shimmy in on stage with Abba’s Dancing Queen playing on the speakers during a Conservative Party conference.

Come to think of it, Abba does have a song titled I’m a Marionette.
