I am sure many of you have watched the 1968 film 'The Producers'. If not, please read:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springtime_for_Hitler
The key to the film is that what was intended by the author/producers to be a serious work about the life of Hitler, portraying him in a good light, was regarded by the audience as hilarious satire.
With this in mind may I draw your attention to the English Passport blog.

On one level it is a political blog we are expected to take seriously. However, if like the audience for the first night of Springtime for Hitler, you regard it as hilarious satire, then you can enjoy the blog whilst at the same time realising its tenuous connection with reality. Happy reading.
