What is missing from the Sue Gray report into Downing Street parties?

Senior civil servant Sue Gray has released her report into the Downing Street parties during the Covid lockdown.

The key findings

Sue Gray said the Downing Street garden was “used for gatherings without clear authorisation or oversight” and “this was not appropriate.”

She found that “at least some of the gatherings” she investigated represent “a serious failure to observe not just the high standards expected of those working at the heart of Government but also of the standards expected of the entire British population at the time”.

Sue Gray called on Downing Street and the Government to "learn" from partygate.

Moreover, she said that the changes that need to be seen across government can take place prior to the completion of the Met Police investigation.

The report suggests that the Met will be investigating Boris Johnson's alleged birthday party in No 10.
