This site has debates from the UK House of Commons (I don't think The Lords is included) that go back at least to World War II. The purpose of the site is to raise public awareness, however it is useful to the historian as a source.

A collection of links to sites with primary sources on World War II. Not particularly well-organised but looks like there's some good stuff in there.

The Library's collection of more than 500 broadsides is one of the largest recorded and the first to be digitized in its entirety. The examples digitized here span the years 1707 to 1891 and include accounts of executions for such crimes as arson, assault, counterfeiting, horse stealing, murder, rape, robbery, and treason. Many of the broadsides vividly describe the results of sentences handed down at London's central criminal court, the Old Bailey, the proceedings of which are now available online at http://www.oldbaileyonline.org.

This is where using the net gets tricky for students. We tell them never to use wikis (for good reason) and then something like this comes along. It's awesome. A fast-growing wiki (a site that anyone can add to) of historical sources. Shows why we need something like Diigo to filter the internet and provide guidance for the students regarding what to use in their research. Run by the same people as Wikipedia (Wikimedia). If you're ever looking for historical images can I suggest Wikimedia Commons.
