Look, it could just be the stress of having to figure out the Irish border post-Brexit, or the risk of leaving the European Union without a deal, but UK Prime Minister Theresa May can't help but bust a move these days.

In the final day of her African visit on Thursday, May showed her awkward yet spirited dancing again, during a stop at the United Nations offices in Nairobi, Kenya to talk plastics and meet scouts.

May's moves, nicknamed the "Maybot" on the internet, are mostly led with her arms as she tried to replicate the moves of schoolchildren.
