Just to be random…
Does anybody know who votes for who in the magical community, or are all the leaders appointed. Because there is no mention whatsoever of voting or democracy. But public opinion is still a major factor in magical politics. And who funds the Ministry? The magical community seems to rely on it for a large portion of their employment opportunities, when you consider the population size (as evidenced by the Hogwarts intake). They do not style themselves as a government, rather as a department, meaning that there is a strong chance they are funded by the muggle taxpayer, which doesn’t seem very fair. There appears to be an independent Executive and Legislature, but the Judiciary is a strange amalgamation of both, which leads to obvious questions as far as accountability and anti-corruption measures are concerned. Who judges the Minister? Are they technically accountable to the Prime Minister, and therefore to the Crown? Is Her Majesty aware of their existence? If so, can legal recourse be taken by a member of the magical community in the Muggle courts, or vice versa? And, is the magical community governed by consent, or does being born with magical blood make you subservient to this apparently unaccountable, undemocratic quango? Basically (and bear in mind this is all conjecture) what really is the Ministry of Magic? Any opinions on this?
