Just as the news was reaching us that Nicolas Sarkozy had won the French election, British Prime Minister, Tony Blair had his own message of congratulations on YouTube in French and English. This just illustrates how quickly governments, individuals and companies can respond to events and the power of Web 2.0 can have.

Some of them require a deeper understanding of UK politics to fully comprehend. Here are some of the more humorous ones.
