Canberra, the only city whose main export is Question Time, got a rude wake-up when Senator Lidia Thorpe said she’d “burn down” Parliament House. 🚨 AFP jumped into action faster than Scott “I Don’t Hold A Hose, Mate” Morrison sprinting for a Hawaiian cocktail. 🍹
Cue the outrage brigade clutching pearls, while the rest of Australia just shrugged “That’s our Lidia.” Still, the Feds don’t mess around when “Parliament” and “fire” end up in the same sentence. 🔥
Funny thing though Canada’s Parliament actually did go up in flames once, back in 1916. 🇨🇦 The whole joint burned down mid-debate, and no one ever figured out why. Royal commission, wartime paranoia mystery unsolved. 🕵️♂️
So maybe let’s all relax, grab some marshmallows, and wait for Canada to text: “Welcome to the Mystery Arson Club, mate.” 🪵🔥
