Sky News presenter Kay Burley is to stay off-air for six months after admitting breaking Covid rules during a night out for her 60th birthday.

Political editor Beth Rigby and north of England correspondent Inzamam Rashid, who were among those with her, will be absent for three months.

"I made a big mistake, and I am sorry," Burley wrote on Twitter. Burley was among 10 people who went to a restaurant on Saturday before she briefly went into another restaurant.

She then moved on to a private residence where individuals from at least three households mixed, the BBC has been told.

Good a libtard receiving consequences for ignoring rules she thought only apply to common people

Hope she isnt getting paid to be off air

That said i would wish everyone ignore these tyrannical rules

Do the opposite of Vendetta

Take off the worthless controlling masks people

Fauci admitted march 2020 they dont work, its eye candy to make people feel good

Assh0le knows this but says now we need a anational mask mandate

Phuck tyrants to death

Burley, who joined Sky News in 1988 and has hosted the breakfast show since October 2019, first offered an apology on Monday, saying she had been "at a Covid-compliant restaurant" but "inadvertently broke the rules" by popping to the toilet in the second restaurant.

I just turned 60. Good grief, after 59 birthday parties,
why do you need one more during a pandemic?

You can murder people by not wearing a mask /sarc.

“I made a big mistake, and I am sorry,”

Every single one of them says that. I wish ONE of them had the balls to say “I’m sorry I got caught.”

Looks like R2D2 didn't have to wear a mask, either.

It is the rank hypocrisy of both her and the ghastly ‘Beff’ Rigby that really sticks in the craw. They both harassed Dominic Cummings for weeks, demanding his head; they have both pontificated about the government and those breaking COVID rules unceasingly for months, and now this. A rule for thee but not for me.

Don’t rush back, Kay.
