Another extraordinary night at Westminster, as Parliament's last act of this sitting was to reject an election. And that's all we'll be hearing from the chamber for the next five weeks after the Government suspended Parliament. MPs held signs saying "silenced", shouting "shame on you." MPs also burst into song on the Commons benches, singing traditional Welsh and Scottish songs. There's mounting speculation about what deal - if any - the Government might strike with the EU. And the Northern Ireland-only solutions to the border appear to be back on the agenda. But are the DUP open to some form of special arrangements for NI? Vinny spoke to Alliance MEP Naomi Long, TUV MLA Jim Allister, UUP MLA Steve Aiken and NI Labour Party member Phil Kelly.
