Liberal senator Bill Heffernan has smuggled what appeared to be a "pipe bomb" into Parliament House to make a point about declining security standards in the iconic building.

And the head of the Australian Federal Police, Tony Negus, has admitted the ingredients needed to create such a bomb could be smuggled into the building.

Senator Heffernan has been warning for months about a rising security risk facing the $1.1 billion building, which opened in 1988.

The senator has a history of concern for parliamentary security.

Bit of a worry?

I think it's only MP's and their families that aren't scanned on entry?? If that's the case it seems a bit silly? Are they trying to say that the labor party and PUP members might come in armed??? lol
