NewzLondon’s Metropolitan Police have announced they will take no criminal action regarding a social media post made by Sarah Helm, an author and the wife of the UK prime minister’s national security adviser. Helm faced accusations of expressing support for the direct-action group Palestine Action.
The scrutiny followed an incident where publisher Faber stopped supplying Sally Rooney’s novels to British bookshops. Authorities reviewed the matter and concluded that Helm's social media post did not constitute a criminal offense, resolving the immediate police involvement in the controversy.
