Vonage is the answer.  I live in Jamaica and use Vonage, and recently
spent 10 days in the UK.  I brought my Vonage modem with me and it
worked perfectly on my parents' BT broadband (DSL) connection.  I
wired my Vonage modem through their Netgear wireless router.

Vonage has very cheap packages (US$15/month for 500 minutes).  While
they do not offer local UK service at this point, they do offer London
(020) numbers.  Calls within the UK cost about US$0.03 per minute.

You can use a regular, wired handset with Vonage through their modem
or, beginning this Spring/Summer 2005, you can use their new WiFi
handset:
