I'm not terribly fond of Fleur either. I know she was the Beauxbatons 
champion but she didn't impress me as being a particularly talented 
witch (other than her Veela talents, that is).

However the person I truly despise is Cornelius Fudge. Need I count 
the reasons? I think we've discussed Fudge's failings in serious 
detail. Mostly I despise his refusal to countenance anything that 
would upset his own and the MOM's apple cart. His impulse is always 
to do what is easy, regardless of whether it's right.

exactly Evil, more like venal and self-serving and officious and...)
