Eamonn McCann: Theresa May's Dancing Days Are Nearly Behind Her
In choosing ‘Dancing Queen’ to soundtrack her conference entrance, Theresa May seems to have entirely overlooked the subject of the song – a dancer whose best days are behind her.
Theresa May took a hammering in the media for shimmying on stage at the Tory Party conference to the sound of Abba belting out ‘Dancing Queen’. A ridiculous spectacle, groaned all of the media and most of the British population. Presenting herself as a disco diva!
“The only person who enjoyed that was Boris Johnston,” growled somebody on Channel 4.
But maybe Mrs. May was making an entirely different point, a confession, even.
