Debates on trade information and royal grounds bills in Parliament
In a late session, Gladstone backs collecting foreign tariffs data and placing it on the table, while plans to annex Frogmore to Windsor and consolidate six royal kitchen gardens provoke opposition. Peers argue over costs, public spaces, and timing, with calls to open parks like Kew and Richmond. The Foreign Bishops Bill advances and the Royal Domain Bill is introduced as the house adjourns.
