LONDON: Irish novelist Sally Rooney said Britain’s decision to ban pro-Palestinian group Palestine Action as a terrorist organization could stop her receiving royalties and even lead to her books being withdrawn from sale due to her support for the group. The bestselling author said in a witness statement made public on Thursday, the second day of a legal bid to overturn the ban, that production company Element Pictures had expressed concern that paying her royalties could be a crime.
