Former Liberal Party leader Malcolm Turnbull is reportedly ready to flex, after the news that he will be making his first major media appearance since his last address as outgoing Prime Minister more than two months ago.
Mr Turnbull is set to appear on ABC’s Q&A live on Thursday, November 8 at 8pm AEDT, where he is expecting to answer questions put to him by the public on everything from party politics – to why he was never given the freedom to do anything about things that concern him like climate change – as well his Tony Abbott should be assessed for early onset dementia.

However, all of that is behind him now. All the drama that comes with a toxic workplace full of undervalued older white men is just a faint silhouette in his rearview.
Because he’s going on Q&A next week. And that fucking jacket is coming with him.
“I’m back, motherfuckers” whispered Mr Turnbull.
Lucy cracks a faint smile and nods in agreeance.
