The first chapter of the new Harry Potter book is a lovely scene involving the Prime Minister of England recieving a visit from ..."the Other Minister": the one he doesn't like to think about; the one whose arrival is always announced by a talking portrait (and he's tried having the picture removed from his office; he's tried!); the one who dresses strangely and who appears in a puff of green smoke out of his fireplace; the one who always tells him something he does not want to hear; the Minister of Magic.

"Why hasn't a former Prime Minister warned me--?" the PM asked the first time he found out about the wizarding world.

"My dear Prime Minister, are you ever going to tell anybody?"
