JOBLESS love rat Keith Macdonald today revealed how he drives women crazy by chatting them up on the buses.
The 20-year-old has fathered six children by six different girls who he says fall for his corny chat-up lines as he woos them during bus journeys.
And as it emerged he may be fathering child number seven, he bragged: "It's easy – they never seem to say no."
Two of his children came after he met their mums on the bus and bagged his latest conquest, Vicky, on the roads.
But Macdonald showed no remorse for his philandering and continues to blame the girls for falling pregnant.
He said: "It's not my fault – I thought they were all on the pill."
JOBLESS love rat Keith Macdonald today reveals the secret of his success: "Pull them on the buses".
The 20-year-old, already a father to six children by six different girls, charms the ladies on public transport – then gets them pregnant.
Two of his children came from top-deck encounters between Keith and their mums, and a string of other girls have fallen for the roaming bus stop stud, including his new girlfriend.
Binman's son Keith, of Glebe, Washington, pays nothing to support his children and has been labelled a "bed-hopping sponger" for costing the taxpayer more than 1million.
Speaking to the Echo in Newcastle city centre, he had this advice for singletons: "Just chat them up on the bus. That's what I do and they never seem to say no. If they like you, they like you.
"Get their number and text them and arrange to meet when you come off the bus. I just pick them up like that.
"I met Stephanie on the bus, I met June on the bus – and I met this one (new girlfriend Vicky) on the bus. It's easy."
Victim number four was June Garrick, now 19, of Ullswater Avenue, Easington Lane, who fell for Keith's charms on a bus and is now looking after Brandon, who will be two in October.
She said: "He gave me his telephone number on the bus. We had gone to the same school – although he was kicked out of it – so I knew who he was.
"We got together a few days later and I soon fell pregnant."
Baby number five will be with Stephanie Jubb, who is expecting a baby in February.
Stephanie, 17, of Alnwick Square, Farringdon, was charmed by Macdonald, of Talley Court, Glebe, at The Galleries bus station in Washington in January.
She told the Echo: "He started smiling at me at the bus stop and we both got on the same bus and he started talking to me. He made me laugh. He was quite charming."
Keith told of his search for a job, but is keeping busy in the meantime playing on his Playstation or partying.
He said: "I have fun, come through to Newcastle, or go into Sunderland. Lasses keep on coming up to me and I have a laugh with gay men as well.
"I walked out of Usworth School and never went back. I haven't done any GCSEs.
"I've been looking for work but can't find it, anything as long as it's a job and keeps me out of mischief.
"But I don't think anyone is going to take me on after this."
Keith denied claims – and quotes from him – that he refused to wear a condom.
He said all of his girfriends had told him they were on the pill and that he had no idea how they fell pregnant.
He said: "I just wish everybody would leave us alone. I've wanted to hang myself because of all the trouble. My dad told me to calm down.
"If it keeps going on, I'm going to go to the solicitor. I've got four kids and one on the way, but that's it.
"If I see the kids I will pay for them, but if I can't I won't. I always use condoms. All of them were taking the pill. I don't know what happened."
DUMPED BY TEXT
A TEENAGER who says she is expecting love rat Keith Macdonald's sixth child became the latest in a long chain of conquests after he dumped her by text message.
Kelly Bonner was ditched on Friday via the nine-word message: "Kel, you R out ov (sic) my life, love Keith".
And another of his conquests today told the Echo there are rumours that Macdonald may have fathered a SEVENTH child by a SEVENTH woman.
The 20-year-old boasts about the number of children he has fathered and how he does not pay a penny towards their upkeep.
But Kelly a former catering student, originally from Murton but now living in Hendon, plans to make him cough up.
The 19-year-old, who was on the pill when she conceived, says she actually thought he was gay when she met him last month in Yates's Wine Lodge in Sunderland city centre on a night out.
"It must have been the way he approached me that attracted me to him," she said. "I think it was the blue eyes and blond hair that did it for me."
"He came over to me with one of my gay friends, turned around and just said 'here's my number'," she said.
"I thought he was gay himself at first.
"After that he just started phoning me and he also left loads of text messages for me. He even came to stay with me one night."
Another of his ex-girlfriends who is also pregnant, 17-year-old Stephanie Jubb, who was featured in yesterday's Echo, says she has now heard that another girl of the same age is on the verge of fathering Macdonald's latest child.
"I only know she's called Zena," Stephanie said. "But I've been told she's seen what's been in the papers and is undecided whether to keep it."
Kelly first heard about her pregnancy last week and admits it was a surprise as she is on the pill.
"We'd been together almost three weeks and I was beginning to suspect something was wrong.
"When I found out, I didn't even want to keep it," she said. "I was down to have an abortion.
"Keith just laughed at me and it took him four days before he came to see me again."
Despite being dumped, Kelly is determined to keep her baby.
"I haven't got any feelings for him at all now," she said. "But when the baby's born I'll be trying to seek out payments from him, even though I don't want him anywhere near it.
"I thought he had about three kids but he didn't tell me he had six.
"As far as I'm concerned he hasn't got a good attitude at all towards women."

The trail of abandoned mums and children
KEITH Macdonald's first child, Jamie Leah, is now four. He fathered her when he was only 15 and split with her mum Michelle Purvis, 27, soon after the birth.
Charlotte Anderson, 16, of Hetton, had his second child, Kady. She split with him after an alleged attack, which Keith denies.
Child number three came from a relationship with neighbour Jordan Banks. She is now 18 and her son Angelis turns two next month.
Victim number four was June Garrick, now 19, of Ullswater Avenue, Easington Lane, who fell for Keith's charms on a bus and is now looking after Brandon, who will be two in October.
Baby number five will be with Stephanie Jubb, who is expecting a baby in February.
Stephanie, 17, of Alnwick Square, Farringdon, was charmed by Macdonald, of Talley Court, Glebe, at The Galleries bus station in Washington in January.
Keith claims to have never met Kelly Bonner, who says she is expecting his sixth child and was dumped a the weekend by text, even though Kelly has pictures of the pair together.
He said: "I must have been drunk. I don't even know her."
Child Support Agency's jail warning
SERIAL love rat Keith Macdonald could face a prison sentence if he carries on failing to pay for his six children.
The 20-year-old has openly boasted about ignoring letters from the Child Support Agency, a part of the Government's Department of Work and Pensions that pushes for absent fathers to pay for their children.
He says he just ignores its letters and forms.
But a spokeswoman from the department said it has the power, if necessary, to force Macdonald to take action or else face possible court action and even jail.
He claims 56.20 a week in jobseekers' allowance, and the spokeswoman said he could face cuts in that amount if he carries on ignoring the requests.
She said: "The much simpler system of calculating child maintenance which was brought in 2003 can result in deductions from a person's benefit despite the fact that they are not in work, to ensure that their child gets the financial support they deserve.
"We can and will use the courts where necessary. Last year we collected over 600million for children."
She added that any calculations have to leave the claimant with enough money to live on.
If Macdonald does face court action, it will not the be the first time he has appeared in front of magistrates.
He has a series of convictions, including a prison sentence earlier this year for hitting another man with a pint glass.
