A MUM who stripped down to her undies in a Jobcentre to make a stand against benefit cuts says she has been out of work for nine years because "local immigrants take" all the jobs.
Simone Reed, 27, was filmed marching into the Jobcentre in Stockton-on-Tees where she tossed off her jacket and revealed a skimpy outfit of stockings, knickers and a bra in 2014.
In the clip, Simone is seen jumping up and down shouting: "I am protesting against sanctions people, I support Labour.
"Get David Cameron out."
The security guards quickly chucked her out, telling her to "grow up" when it took place two years ago, the Daily Mail reported.
Simone was allegedly inspired to do the protest after her own sister's benefits were sanctioned.
Speaking outside the Jobcentre at the time, Simone said: "I did it for people with children and families, it hurts me seeing kids suffer, seeing kids living in poverty."
After the footage went viral the mother-of-three revealed the stunt was the result of the drinking game NekNominate.
But when Simone appeared on Channel 5's On Benefits she claimed the stripping show was a well thought out plan to raise awareness of the cuts introduced by the Conservative government in 2012.

When Simone fell pregnant nine years ago, she quit her job at a convenience store.
Now, after being out of work for years, she claims the government says it is her own fault that she is unemployed.
But she believes she is jobless because immigrants are making it hard to find work.
Simone said: "They are letting all the immigrants in. We can't get jobs as local immigrants take them away.
"They are coming here taking our jobs and building up their own companies. Immigrants are employing us, we are not employing them."
Now the single mother and her unemployed friend Shannie are trying to embark on a modelling career to make some extra cash.
Simone has set up a photo shoot with an amateur photographer to take snaps of her in her underwear to start building a portfolio.
She added: "We hand our C.Vs out in pubs and shops. This is another gateway to heaven, instead of just handing out C.V.s we are doing this (the photo shoot) as an extra to help us."
The motivated mum is hoping to be able to show her children she has "done something" with her life.
