HC Deb 29 June 1900 vol 85 c76
MR. WILLIAM REDMOND

I beg to. ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it is intended that the occupation of Egypt shall be permanent, and if it is not so intended, whether Her Majesty's Government can now state at what date the occupation is likely to cease.

MR. BRODRICK

Her Majesty's Government have nothing at present to add to the declarations which have been publicly made by them and by their predecessor in regard to the policy of this country in Egypt.

MR. WILLIAM REDMOND

Is the Khedive visiting this country because he wants us to clear out of his country?
