A saucy mum who stripped off in a Jobcentre was demonstrating against the ‘suffering of poor people’, she revealed today.

Simone Reed, 25, was dubbed “The Stockton Stripper” when video of her routine went viral.

The mum-of-two was “dared” to get her kit off in broad daylight for the internet drinking game NekNominate.

But she said that the stunt was also her way of highlighting the ‘rich getting richer, and the poor, poorer’ as a result of David Cameron’s policies.

Simone had not anticipated the level of interest - and abuse - after disrobing to reveal her black underwear and suspenders in Stockton-on-Tees Jobcentre Plus.

The footage was viewed by thousands of people on-line, and the former cleaner shouted “I support Labour” and “Get David Cameron Out”.

Named for the first time today, she said: “It was a bit of fun, it’s not like I had nothing on. It was just a dare off a friend.

“My adrenaline was sky high, I was shaking. But people are now calling me names and ringing me up and saying horrible things on the phone.

“I didn’t even put it on Facebook, somebody else took the video.”

Clutching an energy drink, Simone marched into her local Jobcentre in front of horrified security guards.

They quickly got her off the premises and told her to ‘grow up’, meaning her strip was over in a matter of minutes.

Simone, a full-time mum, admitted it was a dare for the online drinking game, but also became a protest for people living in poverty.

“I do want David Cameron out. I think he’s horrible,” she added.

“There is a woman near me with five kids and she had people taking her food parcels.

“The poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer. That’s why I did it as well. People are suffering.”

The video was filmed by a close friend but she claims a second person must have taken a copy of the video and posted it online.

It was then shared on social media site Twitter thousands of times, and also viewed on Facebook.

Simone, who has a long-term partner, hopes people will see her for the person she really is - a loving mum, with a sense of humour.

She joked: “I just did it for the craic, I thought it was funny at the time.”

Her Jobcentre prank, carried out over three weeks ago, is her second strip stunt.

She has also taken off her clothes in a local convenience store.

Simone said: “If I could get this video footage off the internet, then I would.”
