Celebrated street artist Banksy has unveiled his biggest project yet – a full-scale parody of a parliamentary system, perched on a hill in the Australian town of Canberra.

Called ‘The Australian Parliament 2015’ the interactive theme park is described as dysfunctional, at times absurd, and on the whole massively disappointing.

The project has been shrouded in secrecy for years, with many locals assuming the building was a serious place of work. “When it was revealed today as a Banksy piece, it all made sense,” one Canberra local said.

Amongst the many attractions at the park, visitors can take helicopter rides, and watch a surreal live performance called Question Time.
