Clinton's Santa Clause Council Estate Card Is Pretty Offensive

A Christmas card that effectively said people from council estates are a drunk, work-shy burglars has been withdrawn from sale.



The card disappeared on the Clintons website after people called it "vile" and "beyond offensive" on Twitter.



The £2 card listed "10 reasons why Santa Claus must live on a council estate", including "He has a serial record for breaking and entering!", 'He has never been seen doing any work in his whole life" and "he only works once a year".




You can't buy this anymore, strangely...




Other funny reasons Santa Claus might be from a council estate was that he "uses wild animals to pull his sleigh". No, The Huffington Post UK does not understand that one either.



On Twitter, people said the card was "seriously vile", "beyond offensive" and "vilifying and stigmatising the poor for corporate gain".

@chunkymark This is seriously vile, and not one word from Clintons

Council Estate Santa Christmas Card - this is beyond offensive - '3. He only works once a year' http://t.co/gLVFK4lmlW via @DomAnderson_1

@Aluminiumville Vilifying and stigmatising the poor for corporate gain. Shame on you @clintoncards - I won't be shopping with you again.

— Susan Batchelor (@SusanABatchelor) December 7, 2014

At number four on the card's list was "He's never actually been seen doing any work in his whole life" and number five read "He drinks alcohol during working hours".

The description on the Clintons website said: "This funny card is great for sending at Christmas time."



But customers on the greetings card retailer's Facebook page took a different view.



Belle Sebastian wrote: "Disgraceful! I live on a council estate - never have I been in trouble with the police, I don't drink, I worked full time for the council until I became very sick this year so I attend university whilst I recover.



"I cannot believe that your company has allowed this vile prejudice - I'm sure a number of your employees live on estates since you only pay minimum wage..."



The card is no longer available on the Clintons website. The URL instead brings up an error page saying "Whoops, our bad..."



A spokesman for Clintons could not be reached for comment. http://ift.tt/1u2U2uD

In an experiment where a kitten was raised in the same cage as a rat, the cat not only refrained from attacking the rat, but the two became close companions, and the cat refused to chase or kill any other rats as well.
