"I can't see this deal going through Westminster on Saturday!"

The EU has agreed a deal with the UK this morning.  Boris Johnson is urging MPs to back it, but he has not received the support of the DUP.  He now has 48 hours to try to win over Arlene Foster and her party in a bid to get his deal over the line at a special sitting of the House of Commons on Saturday.  Otherwise, he will be dependent on the support of 18 rebel Labour MPs.  Minister for European Affairs, Helen McEntee, DUP, MLA Jim Wells and Gary Gibbon, Channel 4 News Political Editor joined Ivan to give him their respective views on the deal.
