There will probably be another plea for DD to become Minister for 
Magic, which I assume he will refuse. But people will still want 
somebody who is *not* from the present MoM leading group, preferably 
one of the few who stuck by DD during the last year. Arthur Weasly 
fits the bill perfectly. And, don't forget, he is a Weasly - a highly 
respected and influential family (this was made clear by DD at the 
end of CoS). So, he will be seen as a natural candidate from that 
respect.


So I wonder where Fudge's army mentioned by Luna in OoP will come 
into play? I can't see Fudge giving up his position easily.  Could 
there be a battle on two fronts or will Fudge's cronies join up with 
Voldy's troops?

We had the DA in OoP, could we not have the F.A.R.T.S?
