Irish novelist Sally Rooney said on Wednesday that her books are being withdrawn from sale in Britain because of her support for Palestine Action, a protest group the British government has outlawed as a terrorist organisation.

Her publisher, Faber, confirmed that the ban "has led to circumstances where Faber cannot pass on UK earnings to Sally Rooney for her work.”
