Cheapest On-line share buying/selling

I want to buy some shares, probably value less than £100. Can people recommend the cheapest on-line place to buy. And also cheapest on-line place to sell?
Thanks, Tony

    I have used Hoodless Brennan for the past few years. It is only £7 per trade which was by far the cheapest when I first started. Not sure now though, as I have not looked around much.

    There are more complex transactions that they do not cater for, however for basic buying and selling of shares I found them very good.

    IMO it in,t worth buying £100 worth,as your dealing charges would take out a large chunk(£20/£25)=25%.But there is a offer on at comdirect at the moment where by you can get £75 free,but you have to invest £500 min. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=235
