The 'Laughing Theresa May' meme captures a candid moment of the former British Prime Minister during Prime Minister’s Questions in March 2017. While listening to a speech by then-Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, May erupted into an exaggerated, shoulder-shaking laugh that quickly went viral due to its peculiar and somewhat eccentric appearance. Internet users immediately drew comparisons to Disney villains or someone concealing a deep secret. The template is widely used to represent fake or forced laughter, reacting to ridiculous situations, or expressing a sense of chaotic amusement when things are going wrong. It remains a staple of political satire and relatable reaction imagery across social media.
