"It was wrong of me to attend the dinner event, and it was wrong of me to hug Kay Burley goodbye as I was leaving to go home."Everyone is making sacrifices and is restricted in many ways right now and mine was a huge error of judgement. "It's been a horrendous year for the country and for Sky News there has been huge pressure to tell a global story all the while mixed with the personal sacrifices and hardship you have all had to contend with."As you know by now, I'll be away for a short period, but I cannot wait to get back to work with you all."- adding that she "was wrong" and "made a big mistake".
"Some dear friends and colleagues - some of the most talented and committed professionals in our business - have been pulled into this"I was one of the founding presenters on Sky News. No one is prouder of our channel's reputation, the professionals on our team, and theSky News Political Editor Rigby was also at the bashThe dramatic announcment was made live on Sky at 4.15pm today.
personally i would sack every fucking jounalist, they are so so out of touch with the struggles of joe blogs
She asked Cummings in the rose garden why he was stayin' on and not resignin'. Hypocrite!
No great loss the 3 of the ScumMedia gone need Peston and Clueless gone, most of all lets get rid of Morgan and his lap dog.
Should sack your useless newsreaders! Meaningless to apologise as it’s probably all faked anyway...it’s not like they are not aware of Covid right......? If yes then proves they are that useless.....
How could you inzyrashid how could you my brother 😢
Double standards you all thought you were all high and mighty no better than others that defy restrictions you are no better than the rest of the population you get all you deserve
No doubt they are still on full pay ...🙄🙄
Not long enough !
Never let her back!!!!
I hope it was a helluva party! Last time I saw Kay Burley on telly she was just yelling ‘it’s a passport, call it what it is, it’s a passport!’ When someone is that smug I likes me a little schadenfreude! Is that how you spell it? Don’t want someone taking pleasure in my errors!
Crikey is anyone really surprised 🤷♀️
Scum
Sheep have a 3 month attention span.
I thought she’d been sacked.
They should be fired the hypocrites
Ohh who’s next
It should be longer, hopefully they’ll be subjected to hourly shaming of their behavior, but doubt it! A public apology would be a start! practicewhatyoupreach
👏👏👏
Should be for 3 years...
