Speedway star Fredrik Lindgren can get fired, because he supported the LGBTQ community

Swedish speedway star Fredrik Lindgren has chosen to openly support the LGBTQ community.

Supporters of his Polish club want him fired.

– I’ve got some hatred. But it just shows how important it is to stand up for others, says Fredrik Lindgren in comment to the Swedish newspaper expressen.se.

First he posted a post on his Facebook page and then he chose to put a rainbow-coloured symbol on his driver’s suit.

Sweden’s best speedway driver, Fredrik Lindgren, wrote under the heading: «Love has no label».

«For this year I’ve decided to stand up for the LGBTI organisations. I wish everyone to feel free and respected for who they are».
