HC Deb 13 November 1882 vol 274 cc1315-6
SIR STAFFORD NORTHCOTE

I wish to ask the Prime Minister, Whether he intends to-morrow, as he intimated the other day, to make a statement with regard to our position in Egypt?

MR. GLADSTONE

Yes, Sir; a very brief statement; but containing what we consider to be the material facts in respect, not of the general position in Egypt, but of the particular Notice given by the right hon. Gentleman.
