You could try to sudo apt-get install localepurge . Chose only english and language that you use, others will be removed from disk and from the packages that you install in the future. With this you could gain some space.
Also look at the http://bleachbit.sourceforge.net/

sudo dpkg -l | grep -i ^ii | grep -i linux-image
