Why is Sally Rooney pulling her books from shops in the UK?

There's been a rush to buy Sally Rooney's books after she said she can no longer sell them in the UK.

Rooney, known for best-selling novels Normal People and Conversations with Friends, said the decision was made with her publisher over her support for the banned group Palestine Action

A month after the group was proscribed by the UK government as a terrorist organisation, Rooney said she would donate the earnings from her UK work to them.

The Irish author, seen as one of the most important writers of her generation, has been backed by hundreds of writers and public figures who have signed an open letter to the government.
