David Cameron poses for selfie with Barack Obama at Nelson Mandela's memorial

Say cheese: Cameron and Obama pose with Helle Thorning-Schmidt

A grinning David Cameron joins Barack Obama in posing for a selfie at Nelson Mandela's memorial today.
The pair lean in as Danish PM Helle Thorning-Schmidt helps President Obama take the snap - but wife Michelle Obama does not look amused.
The image of the US president, British Prime Minister and Danish leader taking the photo was quickly trending on Twitter.
Many users thought it was inappropriate behaviour at the memorial event to remember the life of the anti-apartheid hero.
The world leaders joined 80,000 South Africans in Johannesburg to celebrate the life of Mr Mandela, who died aged 95 last Thursday.
