As the UK Parliament took control of Brexit on Monday night, meaning that indicative votes are set to take place on Wednesday to see if there's an alternative Brexit path, former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern told Ivan why he's happy this has happened, even if it is later than he wanted it to be.

On the Hard Shoulder weeks ago, Ahern told Ivan that he expected indicative votes to be the way forward, and so it has turned out to be.

Former Ambassador the EU Bobby McDonagh also shares his thoughts on whether there is a constructive way forward.
