Nothing

[Dun Garbhan @Dungarbhan]

Just caught up with RTÉ News. Calm, rational presentation of Covid facts and figures. Short non hostile interview with the Taoiseach. No hysteria from nightclub owners, no frothing and fulminating by the Opposition.

A normal country fighting a pandemic.

Even BBC News at 10 is now leading on the Boris Johnson party story. There's absolutely now way he can stay. Waiting for the investigation to report is not enough. The opposition now needs to call on him to resign! #BBCnews

Tuesday’s @DailyMirror front page: No 10 party email bombshell: INVITE TO DO WHAT YOU LIKE https://t.co/ni2BRDKEaY

No wrongdoing but ‘OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE - No10 ONLY’

[James Dewar @IndigoFast]

Boris Johnson and Douglas Ross and entire Conservative party should really apologise to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scotland ex-CMO Catherine Calderwood.

Slimy hypocrites.

[Jen Wood - est optimum simpliciter @unojen_wood]

So the UK Govt has decided the pandemic is over. The rest of the world are looking at us in absolute horror.

[Tommy Sheppard @TommySheppard]

Just voted against Tory budget motion. Astonished in lobby to hear @UKLabour whips telling their MPs that’s it for today. The next vote is on the punitive Tory welfare cap. Glad to say @theSNP (and a few decent Labour people) aren’t going home until we vote against that too.

[Freedom for Scotland. Independence now. Ⓥ @voice_scottish]

Tomorrow we go to say goodbye to our Nephew aged 37. He got Covid in November last year and never came out of the coma. He leaves behind a wife and 3 young children. To read yet again what has been going on at No 10 really boils my blood, surely this lump of lard now has to go.

@PippaCrerar A pathological liar !

[Robert Doig @RDoig]

@amcarmichaelMP Says the man who leaked falsehoods about sturgeon and then repeatedly lied about the leaks!

[Alistair Carmichael MP @amcarmichaelMP]

Boris Johnson himself said just days after this party that the police should step in to stop people holding outdoor gatherings. It would absolutely reek of double standards if the police don’t investigate these allegations in full.

The government has operated on the assumption that people get ‘outrage fatigue’ after a few days. But I can’t get out of my mind all those - mostly elderly - people who spent Christmas 2020 alone. For many, it was their last Christmas. Stay outraged. There must now be justice.

[Jenni Lang @lang_towers]

On 20 May 2020 my baby brother was in ICU. He died on 23rd May. We couldn’t sit with him until they switched off his life support. My dad and I watched him take his last breaths over FaceTime. The words I want to use right now would get me kicked off Twitter #DowningStreetParties

@Muqadaam Me!

[Laura Kuenssberg @bbclaurak]

What's also very obvious is that some staffers thought it was a v bad idea at the time - a flavour of messages shared with us from when Reynold's email was sent - 'Um. Why is Martin encouraging a mass gathering in the garden?', another says, 'Is this for real?'

[Robert Doig @RDoig]

@CraigWHoy1 Downing Street parties!
