How The Harry Potter Characters Would Vote On Brexit

Dobby is a FREE elf, with full voting rights.

With the vote coming up on Thursday, the EU referendum is kicking into full gear and the Leave and Remain campaigns are making their final pitches to the upstanding British public.

But there's one person we know would DEFINITELY vote Leave: Vernon Dursley. Yes, the Vernon Dursley who kept Harry Potter locked in a cupboard. That one. J. K Rowling said so herself:

Which made us think: how would the other Harry Potter characters vote this week? Who would be In and who would be Out?

The results may surprise you...

How Harry Potter Characters Would Vote In The EU Referendum

“It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.”
1 of 26Warner BrothersNo debate has caught the nation's attention quite like the EU referendum, but how would the Harry Potter cast vote? Let's start with Harry. He's voting In, because he knows it's what his father would have done.
2 of 26Warner BrothersHermione is backing Remain, because she is a firm believer in the rule of law (and basic elf/muggle rights, obv).
3 of 26Warner BrothersRon is Out, because he doesn't like the elitist Brussels bureaucracy.
4 of 26Warner BrothersDraco is also voting Leave, because he doesn't like the continent.
5 of 26Warner BrothersBut his dad, Lucius, is In, because he has a better relationship with David Cameron than Boris Johnson.
6 of 26Warner BrothersFilch is definitely Out, because he's mad as hell and he's not going to take it anymore.
7 of 26Warner BrothersAfter arguing constantly with Harry and Ron, Ginny isn't telling anyone what she's doing.
8 of 26Warner BrothersVernon Dursley is for Leave, because he likes that Farage chap (and JK Rowling said so).
9 of 26Warner BrothersPetunia, on the other hand, is secretly In because she likes the idea of the UK and France getting along.
10 of 26Warner BrothersDudley is also for Remain, because he finally trusts Harry more than his dad.
11 of 26Warner BrothersLuna is Out, because she thinks it might make it harder for Nargles to find her.
12 of 26Warner BrothersNeville is In, because everyone loves an underdog, and this Corbyn fellow seems to have true integrity.
13 of 26Warner BrothersDolores Umbridge is Out, because she would prefer to be closer to the centre of power.
14 of 26Warner BrothersHagrid is going for Remain, after Harry convinced him to change from Leave.
15 of 26Warner BrothersSnape is voting Leave, because he knows James would have been In.
16 of 26Warner BrothersMcGonagall is also Out, because she supports the primacy of British tea.
17 of 26Warner BrothersCho Chang is choosing Leave, because she thinks it could hasten Scottish independence.
18 of 26Warner BrothersGilderoy Lockhart, on the other hand, is In, because he loves his jaunts to France.
19 of 26Warner BrothersSirius Black is voting Leave, because he no longer trusts large institutions.
20 of 26Warner BrothersDobby, a free elf, is In, because Harry is and because of the European Elf Rights Act campaigned for by Hermione.
21 of 26Warner BrothersCedric is also choosing Remain, because it's what his parents would have wanted.
22 of 26Warner BrothersBellatrix is Out, because she wants to restore the primacy of true Brits.
23 of 26Warner BrothersRemus Lupin is In, because he has a good support network of European werewolves that he wants to maintain.
24 of 26Warner BrothersFred and George are more interested in taking the piss (they thought about voting Out, but didn't bother voting 'cos they sell all their shiz on the Dark Web anyway).
25 of 26Warner BrothersDumbledore is for Remain, because he's seen what wartime is like too many times before.
26 of 26Warner BrothersBut Voldemort is also In, because he thinks it will be a close vote and wants to cause chaos.

5 of 7Rich Cooper / lookcatalog"Harry Potter and the GCSE Art Project" - It's three days before Harry's Art coursework is due in, and he hasn't so much as touched a brush. It's going to take a miracle to get this done.
