The Prime Minister Theresa May announced a general election on June 8 in a shocking announcement on the steps of 10 Downing Street today.
She claimed the election, due to take place in about two months, will help to foster unity before Britain makes its Brexit negotiations.
The wind blustered around the PM as she announced her intentions to the press today, but despite the weather whipping at her hair, the PM delivered a confident speech, according to body language expert Darren Stanton.
“May’s posture is confident. She’s standing tall and her tone is low and consistent, this is a person feeling confident in what they are saying,” Darren said.
May was channeling Margaret Thatcher during her speech today, according to the expert, and had defiantly taken some public speaking tips from the former PM.
“From her tone of voice and breath control, I think its clear she has received coaching in her delivery overall,” he added.
“I detect the actual pitch of her voice seems deeper than before to command more power.
“This is something image consultants did with Margaret Thatcher to give her more gravitas when speaking.”
Darren’s powers of deduction were somewhat hindered by the way in which the speech was framed by cameras.
However, he said May did exhibit some odd behaviours before beginning her speech.
“Prior to speaking she shuffled around a little, making some odd movements with her head. She gives a little dance, she places her notes down, steps back a little then steps forward to begin her announcement.”
However, despite this Darren felt there was no sign that the Prime Minister was anything other than confident.
“I saw no gestures that denote any kind of inconsistent or unconfident behaviour with the content of what she was saying,’ he added.
Darren recently analysed images of Nicola Sturgeon, the First Minister of Scotland, of herself on a sofa writing a letter to Theresa May.
Nicola Sturgeon, First Minister of Scotland, has issued a demand to British Prime MinisterTheresa May for another Scottish referendum regarding the country’s independence.
The leader was pictured with her feet curled up on a sofa, signing the Section 30 letter yesterday, which was then sent to Downing Street.
The image has been noted by many for its similarity to a photograph taken of Margaret Thatcher during her ministerial years.
