How do I change the response to a meeting

Hi If I am sent a meeting invitation, the email prompts for me to responde with my attendance intention of Accept, decline, tentative.

That works fine, and the event goes into the correct calendar (it asks which calendar).

However, if I don't do this on initially opening the email, or I need to cancel my attendance, I can't find a way to go into the event (or the original email) and still have these attendance options.

I can open the event in google calendar on the web (I'm using gmail based accounts) and change my attendance option there, but can't find anything similar in the lightning calendar. It seems to treat the event as my own meeting, and not someone elses.

I have attached screenshots of google calendar and the lightning calendar windows for the same event.

Have I missed something?

I'm using Linux Mint 19 and Thunderbird 60.9.0 (64 bit)
