Japanesse Quidditch Team Goes on Strike!
 
 

Just three days ago the Toyohashi Tengu of Japan went on strike after team owner decided not to raise the team's pay. The team of course was angry after this. Jing Jing Leung, the team's Keeper, had this to say when asked about this:
 
"The team was promised a raise when our contracts were renewed just a few months ago. And now the owner is telling us that we won't be paid this raise because we aren't playing well enough!"
 
Leung went on to have this to say:
 
"You know it costs money everytime we have to burn our brooms! Just in the last season I had to buy five brooms just because we lost five games!"
 
For now the team will be finding replacement players. But with the World Quidditch Cup only months away it seems very unlikely that Japan will win anything if this keeps up. Of course The Daily Prophet will keep you updated on what is to come.

Rita Skeeter Arrested
Daily Prophet reporter Rita Skeeter was arrested August 14, 2004. She was charged on illegal use of animagi, spying on hogwarts students illegally, and writing untrue stories for the paper. Our reporter got to have a word with her. She said, " I really don't see what the problem is. I did nothing of what they said. I don't believe they are putting me in Azkaban! I was just simply doing my job!" Well, we hope Rita enjoys the 5 years in Azkaban.
 
Elves On Strike
The former house elves of many Wizards are on strike because they think that they should get paid for doing all this work. These feelings came about after Dobby, leader of the strike, explained how house elves should be paid like everyone else. Now they think it is unfair that elves to be treated the way they are.The elves will not work until they get paid money.Except one elf named Piddley is still working. Piddley is a young elf and is very scared of what his master may so if he goes on strike.
 
"I enjoy my job, I get a house to live in food to eat whats there not to like."
 
These were the words of young Piddley after being asked why he was still working. Many masters are hoping this will end soon. More news to come on the elves.
