The Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom are investigating a social media post made by Sarah Helm, the wife of a top security aide to Andy Burnham. Helm expressed anger on X (formerly Twitter) regarding the withdrawal of books by author Sally Rooney. The withdrawal followed Rooney’s decision to donate royalties to Palestine Action, a group proscribed as a terrorist organization by the UK government. Police stated they are “assessing whether any further investigation [is] required” based on Helm's online activity. The situation raises questions about the potential implications of publicly supporting organizations deemed terrorist entities. Authorities are currently evaluating if Helm’s post constitutes any criminal offense under UK law. The investigation centers on determining if the post warrants further action given the sensitive nature of her husband’s position and the proscribed status of Palestine Action.
