Are we to take it from that answer that the right hon. Gentleman has not heard of any new agitation recently; and may I ask whether it is a fact that the ex-Khedive of Egypt is buying land in Palestine or in Trans-Jordan, as he is no friend of this country? May I also ask whether the right hon. Gentleman reads regularly the confidential reports of the defence force in Palestine which are sent to him? I do not know what is in them, but I should be more satisfied if I thought that they were read by the right hon. Gentleman.
