PM Tells Customs Officers He Has No Idea How All Those Chinese Breath Mints Got Into His Luggage

A returning Australian traveller has today been forced to face the music.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has had to front customs officers a short time ago, after returning to Aus with a bag of goodies.

“Oh those haha,” laughed Albanese after being told to open up his luggage at Sydney International Airport.

“Honestly, I have no idea how all those Double Happinesses got in there,” said the PM.

Landing back in the country after a whirl wind tour of China to try and rebuild our relationship with our largest trading power, Albanese said he actually completely forgot he had a few too many packets of Chinese breath mints in his luggage.

“Oh, it completely slipped my mind that you aren’t allowed that many packets of darts,” said the PM.

“I mean, they are all just for recreational use,” he continued.

“Cause I’ve got a bucks party coming up, and I just thought I’d look after a few of the boys and all dat.”

Predictably, it can be revealed of course that the customs officer was not sympathetic to the PM’s plight, and decided to confiscate all but a couple of packets.

“Fucking stitch up aye,” said the PM to The Advocate a short time ago.

“You think I’d get some diplomatic immunity or something, but nothing.”

“I’m off it.”

“Might have to look at the legislation on that front.”

More to come.
