Theresa May is being mocked for this video of her playing football

Theresa May has decided to commemorate a "historic week" for English football by tweeting a video of herself kicking a ball around with some children in her local constituency.

She wanted to commemorate the fact that Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur successfully reached the Champions League final and Arsenal and Chelsea will play each other in the Europa League final.

Much like the prime minister's other attempts at shedding her "Maybot" image (see: "Dancing Queen", running in wheat fields, etc.), people are finding it hilarious.

Some stuck to critiquing her football skills themselves.

While others couldn't help but turn it into a Brexit analogy after her faux pas earlier this week saying she can make a "Liverpool-style comeback" in negotiations to secure a deal.

The prime minister was in Maidenhead to support a local women’s football team and said it was a "lovely day" of constituency events.
