== "The Other Minister" is [[House of Cards (British series)|Francis Urquhart]] ==
In the first chapter of HBP, the nameless PM refers to his predecessor as "him", even though the PM at that time would have been John Major, who was preceeded by Margret Thatcher. However, if the HBP PM is the protagonist of ''House of Cards'' (which takes place at about the same time as the Potter books), this allows for the short tenure of Harry Collingridge, F.U.'s immediate predecessor.
* Furthermore, HBP also has a minor character named Urquhart - in Slytherin, the House of scheming and skulduggery, which are characteristcs both Francis Urquhart and the PM in HBP have in spades.
