Fathers Day the Marxist Way

Let's face it. That car cleaning kit you bought your Dad this morning just doesn't feel as right as it did when you were running around the petrol station in a panic having forgotten what day it was until the guy behind the counter tried to flog you a cheap nasty 29p fathers day card.

Feeling guilty. Good. So you should. Because who else have you probably forgotten to pay homage to today? Have you done anything to pay your respects to the father of communism himself, Dr Karl Marx? Maybe had some flowers delivered to Highgate Cemetery? We thought as much.

But fear not. It's okay, we're about to help you make amens and rectify both of these transgressions in one fell swoop.

See that picture up there. That's a Karl Marx t-shirt we found going for £10 with free P&P. No need to go promoting individual websites, just Google "Karl Marx t-shirts" and there's LOADS of places to choose from with all kinds of designs and customization options available and all round about the same price.

And don't worry if Daddy isn't already a card carrying member of the CPB and knows absolutely nothing about the man printed on his t-shirt. This gives you the perfect excuse to slip a little bonus gift in there... a copy of The Communist Manifesto. Two birds. One stone. And the revolution takes one step forwards.

Oh, and about that membership...!
