Politics is tough business

Severus was already walking towards them.
"There you are. Harry, how do you look? "
The boy looked down at himself in panic. He had been to the tower again to get changed. .With grass stains on his trousers, he really didn't want to show up for dinner.
"Is something wrong?"
"Everything is fine with your clothes, but your hair looks impossible," sighed the teacher.
“They always do that. .even Fleur has given up making a hairstyle out of this nest, ”Draco grinned.
"It runs in the Potters' family," Harry grumbled.
Severus still tried to get his son's hair into shape.
.“That has to be enough, I can't get it any better. And now comes before Lucius and Sirius start striving for world domination. "
Both teenagers looked at the man in amazement.
"What do you mean?" Was it from Draco.
"Just wait." .with that cryptic remark, Severus led the two boys into the living room.

Lucius tried to convince Sirius of his plans, but the former marauder was stubborn.
."Luc, I have already performed my duties as Lord, why should I go into politics now?"
“Because it's all connected. As a politician you have more of a say. .and if you also have a title of nobility, then people listen to you on principle. "
“Yes, because they are all droolers and creeps. .Very few of them are behind the cause they are speaking out for, "moaned the former marauder.
“True, but that's still better than the blindness that has reigned in recent years. .you weren't there for a long time, but believe me, most of the decisions would have driven you crazy. "
"Not present, that's a very polite way of saying that I was innocent in the building."
.“Something that wouldn't have happened if people finally did their job. But they preferred to hide behind the minister. .Unfortunately, they forgot that he was just a normal person, and he was under double pressure at the time. At that time the kings had advisors for such cases, ”said Lucius excitedly.
"Do you want to reintroduce the monarchy?"
."Sirius, we live in a country where people brag about their titles of nobility and thereby gain power and prestige. Strictly speaking, it's nothing more than a monarchy. .even our head of state is not directly elected by the people. "

Harry looked up at Severus when he heard this. They had just come into the living room.
“Yes, it has been going on for a while. .and no, they probably don't even know that we entered the room, ”Severus said.
“That's not the point. I wanted to know if that's true? And if so, how do the people vote for the minister. "
."I thought you read the book?" Switched him to his father.
“I have, but it just said that the population would vote for part of the council themselves. .those who come from old families and have a title of nobility can take a seat on the council without a choice, ”Harry lectured his knowledge.
“Only the families that are really old and have a reputable family tree. .for example the Malfoys the Blacks the Lestrange even if all of them are still living representatives in prison. Your family has a seat too, ”came from Draco.
.“I know, I've read, but I can't take it until I'm twenty-one or when I'm married. And they are talking about the age of majority at seventeen. You have a seat too, don't you? "
"Not me, my father," corrected the blonde.
."I mean yes, your family. And you too, right? ”With that, Harry turned to Severus.
"My mother comes from an old family, yes I have a seat, the Prince, but I never accepted it."

.Lucius had heard the last sentence, and now he joined the conversation:
“And these are exactly the things that have ensured that this country slowly but surely went to the dogs. And now we have the salad. .nobody cares about their rights or duties anymore. And those who do it rarely have anything good on their mind. The council is full of traditionalists who are mad at the minister for taking away their favorite hobby. .they're just waiting to finally saw it off. "
"Killing magical beings isn't a hobby, it's murder," Sirius growled.
"We already had it. But the fact is that the chances of Crouch's re-election are very slim. .he will definitely be voted out in four years, at least if nothing changes in the composition of the council. And then we will probably have a new minister who will undo everything that the current one has achieved through hard work. .great prospects, and only because of stubborn heads like you who refuse to take on their duties. "
