LABOUR’s deputy leader Tom Watson was today branded “utterly embarrassing” after performing a ‘dab’ dance move in the House of Commons.
Tom Watson DABS in parliament during PMQs
The West Bromwich East MP carried out the stunt at the end of Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s last question during Prime Minister’s Questions.
Having clashed with Theresa May on NHS funding, an irate Mr Corbyn had told the Prime Minister: “We need a government that puts the NHS first and will invest in our NHS.”
As the Labour leader sat back down, Mr Watson raised both his arms to his face in his frontbench seat.
A spokesman confirmed to Express.co.uk the Labour MP had performed an "improptu" dab.
Twitter users were quick to spot the Labour MP’s dance move, with Gareth Gaston posting: “Utterly embarrassing when a 50 year old man dabs during #PMQs.”
Charlie Ford wrote: “Tom Watson dabbing in PMQs is the final nail in the coffin.”
James Trench added: “The only consolation of the dab on #PMQs is Corbyn not having a clue what Tom Watson was doing”.
