‘Looks like me drying the bathroom floor after I've had a shower’

TextDeclan Rhys Massicott

Prime Minister Theresa May is currently on a tour of three African nations, seeking to enhance Britain's ties ahead of Brexit in March 2019. Whilst visiting the ID Mkhize High School in Cape Town, May was greeted by singing and dancing students, and decided that the best way to show her appreciation was to join in.

Dubbed #Maybot online, the toe curling clip has inspired a new wave of memes, featuring May dancing to various songs such as Migos’ “Walk it Talk it”, ABBA’s “Dancing Queen”, and Drake's “In My Feelings” (because it wouldn’t truly be a meme if Drake weren’t involved somehow). See some of our favourites below.
