'Disable resolvconf permanently

I'd like to disable resolvconf permanently in Ubuntu 16.04.

Right now my /etc/network/interfaces contains

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
    address 192.168.43.175
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 192.168.43.0
    broadcast 192.168.43.255
    gateway 192.168.43.1
    # dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
    dns-nameservers 192.168.43.240
    dns-search domain.local

As soon as the networking service starts configures the /etc/resolv.conf with 

# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 192.168.43.240
search domain.local

What I want to is to modify my /etc/resolv.conf with custom nameservers and domains without having to modify my /etc/network/interfaces and having the config permanent after networking restart or OS reboots.

I managed to make it permanent after networking restart doing

resolvconf --disable-update

But this option is not permanent after OS reboot.

Solution 1:[1]

~/# systemctl disable systemd-resolved.service
~/# service systemd-resolved stop

Edit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf and add this to [main](or change it):

dns=default

Then:

~/# systemctl restart network-manager

By the way, why set this by default? So annoying, at least let the Manual configuration on the nm-connection-editor take precedence over this.
