First an average MP, now a mayor/secondary prime minister and as promised he shall be Prime minister. But I fear that he isn’t man enough to get there before I grow old and democracy is out of date. The quickest way through is best. Against betrayal, Macbeth is too weak to murder Duncan, whilst I wouldn’t care friend or foe. I wish I would be a man to do this single once in a life time oppurtuinty fee. I wonder if I reason Macbeth with our relationship on edge, he will agree. Then power will be in reach and money even closer with Macbeth’s skills. These foul creatures dont seem promising, I am comming to my senses and comparing it to reality but it doesn’t add up, we shouldn’t turn a blind eye to them yet victory has not been won.

Hello Gary,
Your re-writing of the scene follows an interesting idea, swapping monarchy for a role in government. I’m interested in the idea of democracy – how might your protagonist take a leading role in democracy if the leader of a party falls ill or is murdered?
Why not develop this and try to achieve the Riff the Bard badge. See me if you would like some help with planning.
