Teresa May ...dancing queen or chief clown?

Honestly .I knew exactly how this would go ,its what I expected .The right wingers out in force to defend her.Oh and some who SAY they aren't right wing but always jump to defend the tories.I cant stand the woman,her politics or her dodgy"principles" her brand of "christianity" that isn't what I understand christianity to be
.I have never criticised her dress sense or her looks .This trying too hard stuff though turns my stomach .I apologise to all who think she is akin to the next saviour ,,you are of course entitled to your opinions .As am I .

TM.has achieved very little that has improved the daily experience for the majority. Either as Home Sec or PM. Unless I have missed it!

Why all the criticism for May? Corbyn wants out , she is carrying out the results of referendum, if anyone deserves to be attact by remainers it’s Corbyn He wouldn’t even canvas for remain , took a holiday

Wel if you want to post her acheivements as Home Secretary niggly I'd like to see them.

That's a matter of opinion varian!

She was the longest serving Home Secretary but she was a dreadful Home Secretary and is now a dreadful PM.

poor Teresa May. What absolute trite.
The longest serving Home Secretary for over 60 yrs and now Prime Minister.

Jalima1108 something to read. Women are mainly affected by zero hours contracts.

I think poor TM is entirely out of her depth in so many ways, She is a bit of a national embarrassment but maybe not quite as bad as Boris. It would be funny if it was not such a real threat to our nation's future.

When can she see that her initial judgement was right and we should remain in the EU? I wish I could be more hopeful.

I respect and admire Mrs May, if only the Labour Party had such a leader
Nice irony, Anniebach.

She had the guts to have a go - it would have been discourteous not to.

Well I wouldn't have dreamt of putting Nicola Sturgeon on a thread on GN because of her dancing skills.

A video went viral and is available on you tube . Not that I want to put a link to it because it would be a tad childish in my opinion and like Theresa May I simply think she did what she did because she had no choice but to be seen as a good sport not a miserable old sod.

What was it she said of her dancing skill something like her dancing was like ' Dad Dancing' .

In the scheme of things is this all some can find to ' have a go' , really?

It seems as if your snide and nasty op has not gone the way you were hoping for as the majority of posters, even though they don't agree with her politics are either in sympathy or admiration.

Thatcher was one such woman and May is another. The women they tread on are of course low paid, part timers and women on zero hours contracts.

They became more prevalent after the global financial crisis in fact, in 2007-8.
Zero hours contracts allow flexibility to both employers and employees although they are controversial.
They are not confined to women workers.

Tbh l feel sorry for her. I cant dance and would feel excruciatingly self concious knowing the press were watching and waiting to tear me apart. She tried

niggly, I had forgotten ‘hug a hoodie’ ?

Theresa May whom I admire, or that creep Cameron?! Tbh, that creep anyone!! No contest indeed!! Not only Huskies annie, but also Hoodies!!

Sisterhood requires a certain commitment to other women. There are of course women who will not only stand on other women to make their way in life, but will actively give the woman trodden on a good kick,to keep her out of the way. Thatcher was one such woman and May is another. The women they tread on are of course low paid, part timers and women on zero hours contracts.

Blinko, Theresa May every time , if only because she doesn’t hug huskies

Yes, quizqueen. Even Mandela himself said he had been a terrorist. I think he came to be revered because he changed his approach to a peaceful one in pursuit of what was, after all, a worthy goal, the de-apartheid-ing of South Africa.

Sadly, things now seem to be going backwards.

I say good on her for giving it a go. In a no-win situation like this, she gave it her best shot. Back off, naysayers, and give credit where credit's due.

If we must have a Tory PM (as there's no opposition leader worth the name) who would you rather, TM or that creep Cameron.

It’s called sisterhood - not, lemon

also ironic that it's mainly women who are doing the criticising about dancing, very shallow.Glad to see the majority on here are not joining in with it though.

I respect and admire Mrs May, if only the Labour Party had such a leader

Theresa May is a rubbish dancer. She has no natural rhythm. As someone pointed out earlier, she is also a Type 1 diabetic and need insulin injections throughout the day, which have to be balanced with her carbohydrate intake. She will be making checks on her blood sugar levels before any engagement which is likely to take time and involve her increasing her activity levels.

I'd say Theresa May is a lousy dancer, (and knows it) but a jolly good sport, and a fine ambassador to join in and the criticism of her skills is totally unfair. If this is all her opponents can come up with to get at her, I'd say it's quite shameful.
