HC Deb 15 August 1883 vol 283 cc587-8
MR. AGNEW

Mr. Speaker, I beg to rise to a point of Order. I wish to ask, Whether it is fitting, and whether it is not disrespectful to the Chair, for an hon. Member of this House to stand at its door with a view to prevent, by his influence, other hon. Members taking their seats, and so to prevent a House being made?

MR. SPEAKER

I never knew of such a case occurring before, and am certainly much surprised that any hon. Member should take such a course.
