10 Doctor Who Characters Who Would Make A Great Prime Minister

7. Donna Noble

PMQ's would get a lot more airtime if Donna was in charge. Indeed, the despatch box would be surrounded by more hot air than a sauna in the tropics, as Prime Minister Noble vented her political spleen at whoever dared criticise her policies. Sure, teaching EastEnders in schools and issuing free scratchcards to the under-fives may seem like a strange way to go, but life under her stewardship certainly wouldn't be dull. Though it's easy to stereotype her as a bling-wearing gasbag, Donna is actually an asset to any party looking to connect with the voting public. She's loud, but also funny and knows her own mind, ensuring she'd stand out from the increasingly colourless types who venture into public office as a career option. You'd love her or hate her. And just as jumping aboard the TARDIS expanded her horizons in ways she'd never imagined, so going around the world and tackling the bigger issues would lead to her developing into a top class premier. Imagine Nigel Farage going up against her in the TV debates. He'd be given shrift shorter than an Adipose's arm. Donna combines personality (perhaps too much personality!), horse sense and enough opinions to sink a battleship.
