According to sources, there will be a Pride festival in Trelleborg at the end of June, marking the first such event since 2017. During the last festival, Pride flags flew on the municipality's flagpoles. The Sweden Democrats want to stop Pride flags from being flown during this year's festival.
" In contrast, the Liberals believe the municipality should fly the Pride flag. " The Liberals believe Trelleborg should be a city for everyone. Trelleborgs Allehanda was the first to report on the Sweden Democrats' stance.
As a municipality, we should remain neutral.
The current status of the municipal board's decision on flying Pride flags is unknown, and it is unclear how many political parties in Trelleborg support or oppose the measure. The specific date in June for the Pride festival has not been disclosed.
We have submitted an initiative matter in the municipal board to ensure that it happens.
