Geoffrey Miller: Geopolitical Analyst on the wording in the Government's call for a ceasefire in Gaza - Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

The Government's being told phrasing in its call for an end to violence in Gaza needs to pack a stronger punch. 

All parties in the House have supported a motion urging those involved in the conflict to 'take urgent steps towards establishing a cease-fire.' 

Geopolitical analyst Geoffrey Miller told Tim Dower that the wording is telling. 

He says the Government clearly didn't want to call for an immediate cease-fire, so 'steps towards' was the compromise. 

He says as the UN has called for an immediate end to fighting, we should follow suit.
