Social Roundup: British elections, “slyther-ins,” and some sound advice

by · May 10, 2015

The UK elections were off to a wildly entertaining start this week. Without pinpointing any one party in particular, the Potter cast sure did have some subtle and not-so-subtle commentary on the political activities.

Jessie Cave provided a millennial response to the typical question of “did you vote?”

While Katie Leung illustrated the conundrum of not voting at all.

James Phelps reassured his followers that he took advantage of the mail-in ballot.

Meanwhile his brother, Oliver, took a slightly different route and put the elections into a historical perspective.

And of course Matthew Lewis offered his own political insight. An accompanying breakfast item was included.

But not without one last jab by Rohan Gotobed.

Politics aside, Tom Felton’s fundraising T-shirt was released this week. Much to the approval of Ron…

… and the disapproval of Lucius. Who looks like he’s either off to Coachella or a cosplay event gone awry.

However, swift revenge is being promised.

Finally, where would we be without this week’s “do-gooder”: J.K. Rowling? For even though she lost the wager on the baby’s name…

… she provided some beautifully depicted wisdom.

Indeed! That’s it for this week’s social roundup. Be sure to let us know your favorite moments from this week and what you thought about your favorite cast member’s tweets.
