Clive have you been interfering with the stock market?

Now that's the truth

Apparently after last nights TV debate, if Trump wins, he is going to set up a special prosecutor to try and get Hillary jailed over her private email server shenanigans.

I can't see these two ever swapping xmas cards 

Well it's all going on for UKIP this week. Leaders stepping down days after getting the job, a bust up between leadership hopefuls, Neil Hamilton getting shown up on question time, and financial backer Arron Banks threatening to leave if Hamilton and the only MP UKIP have, Douglas Carswell remain in the party.

The BBC reported that UKIP sources cited the punch up between MEP's Steven Woolfe and allegedly Mike Hookem, as a "rumbustious argument". Not actually sure what that means, but I suppose it translates as high spirits rather than a good kicking.

Douglas Carswell seems to upset everyone, which is ironic as the only MP.

Has UKIP outlived it's purpose? Like it or loathe it, we are leaving the EU, and a lot of credit has to be given to the Farage publicity machine for achieving this aim.

But as a political party, they have struggled to shake off extreme views, seem to attract unsavoury characters, and have few if any genuine practical policies. Their sole aim and energy was at getting the UK out of the EU. Although they commanded an impressive vote during the last election, I suspect without Farage and a decisive policy such as leaving the EU, we won't see a repetition in the next election.

I wonder if those voters will naturally gravitate towards Corbynism or will the Liberals manage to rebrand themselves?

Blimey, pound really has been hammered this morning. Apparently it's recovered from where it was first thing

lol cruel, but must be very satisfying 

Interesting thing on the news this morning about Heathrow. Apparently the pollution levels around the airport are actually generated primarily by vehicles and not aircraft as most anti runway campaigners suggest.

So plans to reduce London pollution levels by introducing less polluting vehicles could have a knock on affect by lowering pollution around the airport to keep a new runway within pollution laws, which it wouldn't currently meet.

Sounds like good news, unless of course you live around Heathrow, in which case it's no doubt bad news 

Watch this space, we have something getting rolled out in November that should allow this, and get some publicity. But don't want to detract from the theme of the thread which is about non smoking 

I'm a long time user of Norton and swear by it. There are countless cheaper ones, even free ones, but when it comes to Security, IMHO it's down to Symantec (Norton) or McAfee.

A lot depends on what devices you have, or if you only want a single subscription. eg Norton Security Deluxe will protect up to 5 PC's, Macs, Tablets and Smartphones (yep you can secure your phone). Currently they are offering that at £30 for 1 year, which is peanuts for security piece of mind.

Windows Defender used to be a free malware scanner which has now become a full antivirus solution. Microsoft are obviously peddling it as the defacto choice for Windows. Personally, Microsoft are new to the party when it comes to full antivirus, and it may be very good, or it may be mediocre, only time will tell. Where as the likes of Norton are long term security experts who built the AV industry.

Whatever you do, don't use a freebie one!

Can't argue with that  I was a mere whipper snapper at 8. Still just as good, and far better than the latest rehash
