The British Ministry of Magic resembled more of a failed state after the Battle of Hogwarts. Although it properly tyrannized law-abiding citizens, it was utterly useless against sadistic genocidal terrorists. For example, after Voldemort came out into open in Year 5, it failed to capture a single Death Eater, despite Harry Potter (their supposedly Chosen One) knowing every one of his inner circle members.

Then, 6 weeks after the great Albus Dumbledore died, it fell without a fight to Voldemort's hordes. Large number of its bureaucracy collaborated enthusiastically with those sadistic genocidal terrorists to exterminate a sizable minority of its population.

Finally ten months later, its own security force, along with that sadistic genocidal maniac and his minions, were destroyed at the Battle of Hogwarts by a group of teenagers and citizen volunteers.

This was an completely pathetic organization that should have lost all authority, legitimacy, and reputation after the war. This Ministry NEEDED Harry Potter, not vice versa, to become a viable institution again.

EU core members (Germany, France, Italy) all have the auto industry as a core economic competence, and they will do everything to protect it. At the very least, they will demand Chinese automakers to produce locally in EU, hire local workers, and pay local taxes

The Royal Navy had 4 HMS Hermiones before. The last one was scrapped in 1997 just as JK Rowling published her first book

Cash flow dropped from $4370 in Q423 and $2513 in Q123 to $242

Automotive gross margin still up there at 17.4%

Inventory jumps $2407 vs Q423
