With David Cameron having stepped down as Prime Minister there's one question on every lad's lips - who's going to replace him?

Step aside Boris Johnson, we have a new contender - meet 19-year-old Travis Simpkins.

Travis appeared on Channel 5 documentary Benefits Britain: Life on the Dole and he says he wants to make some big "Donald Trump-style" changes to the country.

At the moment the lad - who described his occupation on Facebook as a 'Controversial Character at Television and Media' - gets £60-a-week employment allowance, but does not want to continue signing on for jobseeker's allowance, as he is not actually looking for work.

Last week he complained the UK should have remained in the EU so he and other scroungers could claim more benefit cash.

But now Travis, who is from Sheffield, has told the Daily Star: "I want to be Prime Minister. I hear there's a job going and I think if I had a manifesto and it was put big in a newspaper for instance, I reckon people would vote for me. I could smash it.

"I talk some sense. In fact, I talk a lot of sense so people would vote for me.

"I would make sure everybody who wants new teeth, or holes repaired in teeth, gets them. You can't get that on NHS at the moment.

"I would make sure everyone who wants boob jobs gets them on the NHS."

He also reckons the government needs to hand out more money to unemployed lads of leisure.

He said: "I would also make sure people who are entitled to benefits, get them. Benefits would be more as well because they aren't enough.

The lad's also announced himself as a bit of feminist, saying he would give more money to lasses than lads.

Travis continued: "I'd give women more benefits than men because women need certain stuff for their monthly business.

"I would do a Donald Trump. I love him. I love his opinions and he has got the brains to do well."

So what you saying lads, do you want this dipshit in charge of Britain?

Let us know in the comments.
