Percy's press conference
Oct. 18th, 2003 02:45 pmAhem.
It has been determined that under the - ah - previous administration, the firm of Snodgrass and Sewurs was permitted to build on a Muggle preserve for an undisclosed, but handsome, sum. The corruption investigation continues, and will focus on all those who worked for Minister Fudge, and especially with - with those suspected of former Death Eater ties.
Harriet Heiffelbueger has been, er, has been found, ah, alive and well, vacationing in an unspecified location in Spain. She has sent a message through the Ministry to reassure her family that she is just fine, and requested that her well-earned holiday not be disturbed.
Ahem.
Wild reports of a dementor at a Muggle convenience store and - (fumbles with paper) I believes this reads 'copy shop' - have proved to be a hoax played upon ignorant Muggles by two children in a bedsheet, with a bucket of WWW Magik Ice. The perpetrators, when caught, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
The Ministry deplores such attempts to disturb the peace, and vows to continue their vigilance so that the last vestiges of Death Eaters shall not escape their just desserts.
Questions, please?
