Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones back Sally Rooney in letter over U.K. book withdrawal

Variety and The Hollywood Reporter report that Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones signed an open letter backing Sally Rooney. Faber says U.K. legislation prevents it from passing on her U.K. earnings, so it can no longer supply her books there. The signatories urge a legal change. The Hollywood Reporter says Rooney intends to keep supporting Palestine Action, which the U.K. outlawed as a terrorist organization.
