GRIEVING relatives of Covid victims last night demanded Boris Johnson quit and urged police to investigate him over the latest No10 lockdown party revelations.

Health staff, Labour and even Tory MPs also joined the growing calls for him to resign amid claims he and wife Carrie had attended the “bring your own booze” bash in May 2020, when gatherings were banned.

A poll yesterday found two-thirds of voters believe the PM should now go.

Former Tory Attorney General Dominic Grieve branded Mr Johnson a "serial liar” who should be ousted.

Whitehall enforcer Sue Gray is now investigating at least six events, four of which were attended by the PM. Her reported is expected next week.

But Mr Johnson was accused of "hiding behind” the probe after he skipped a Commons quiz in which tearful and angry MPs recounted painful lockdown memories.

Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice Group spokeswoman Hannah Brady told how she signed her dad Shaun's death certificate on May 20, 2020, the day of the No10 garden party.

She said: “This pandemic for me is the story of two men.

"One is my 55-year-old dad who is dead, having spent 42 nights on a ventilator fighting Covid. The other is a man who was 55 at the time of this party, Boris Johnson.”

Hannah also told how in September she sat in the Nolo garden with Mr Johnson, who insisted he had done everything he could to protect” Shaun, from Wigan. She added: It makes me feel sick to think about it.
