That's not the point. The point is that this was an organised event at a time when such an event was illegal.
For public confidence in the system during extraordinary times, it is important that the people in charge lead by example. This clearly has not happened. It looks really bad when people can't visit their dying relatives in hospital, or have more than 15 people at a funeral, yet there are parties going on at the Prime Minister's office (and home).
He won't resign. Far more likely is that his own party will organise a vote of no-confidence in his leadership of the party. That will probably happen because many of his colleagues are worried about holding their seats at the next election, and are now seeing him as an electoral liability. To try to save themselves they will ditch him.
