Why am I liking all the young women on here? *sigh*

Many... We do know that Arthur is not the new Minister, but... in an 
interview, JKR answered 'yes' when asked if now that LM is in 
Azkaban, will be see more of Narcissa. This and Fudges ouster seem to 
tell me that LM will be persona non grata in the WW from here on out. 
Harry was right all along, and he's consistantly named LM as a death 
eater for over a year now. No more imperious defense here, unless 
that's why Fudge is kicked out... and if so, then LM still wouldn't 
be welcome in the high seat.
