More than one million people have signed a petition objecting to Boris Johnson's plan to suspend Parliament for up to five weeks. Opposition leaders are calling the move anti-democratic, and claim it's happening so the Prime Minister can force through a no-deal Brexit. He denies that. Opposition parties are planning to force a bill through Parliament next week - designed to stop the Prime Minister Brexiting without a deal. Locally the DUP are the only party to support the move. Arlene Foster says its sensible but Sinn Fein says Mr Johnson is treating people with contempt. Stephen spoke to Sinn Fein MLA Conor Murphy, TUV leader Jim Allister and MP Anna Soubry.
