Sally Rooney royalties withheld over Palestine Action support

Original: « … the publisher said it couldn’t send UK earnings to Rooney due to her support for Palestine Action, but one bookstore

Sally Rooney's UK book earnings are reportedly being withheld by her publisher because of her public support for Palestine Action, which is banned in the UK as a proscribed organisation. At least one independent bookstore is still able to keep selling her books and process sales. The dispute has drawn attention to how the ban affects not just members but also public supporters and their financial dealings.

Why now: People are reacting to a banned-organisation law having direct financial consequences for a famous author
