Barack Obama & David Cameron Under Fire For Taking 'Selfie' During Mandela's Memorial Service


US President Barack Obama, Prime Minister David Cameron and Danish leader Helle Thorning-Schmidt grinned as they cosied up for a quick picture at today's memorial service for the former South African president, prompting an outpouring of criticism.
As the trio posed for the mobile phone snap, Obama's wife Michelle sat alongside her husband looking less than impressed.
Twitter user James Armitage wrote: 'What selfish morons take a 'selfie' at a memorial service? Oh yeah that's right, Barack Obama and David Cameron.'
In a message directed at Mr Cameron, Sarah McDermott said: 'You have precisely zero class or decorum.'
Ms Thorning-Schmidt is married to Lord Kinnock's son Stephen, prompting questions about how the former Labour leader would feel about the image.
Writing on Twitter, Mel Huang said: 'I wonder if Neil Kinnock got an ulcer seeing his daughter-in-law do a selfie with David Cameron...at a memorial service.'
