people do that to meet loved ones, go on holiday, just go on a trip in general, nothings stopping that...
Exactly. And by travelling, they are meeting people, getting to know places, etc...

the eu flag ? not around here, as for the adverts they normally promote european destinations......

Subtle changes like this make a huge difference.
Well here, the EU flag is almost everywhere. Look at my town website: www.heywood.org.uk
And yesterday I saw an EU anti-smoking advert

im sorry but military related issues should be sovereign to the country it belongs to, ie the british military is in british control!
Yes, the military is what makes a country seperate from another. At that stage, the EU stops becoming a union and starts becoming a superstate. To me, I'm not bothered. I don't know how people can be 'proud' of their country. They just happened to be born in a place which people called 'Britain'. Nothing to be proud about, if anything, the British Empire stands for cruelty and slavery. I really don't mind who governs me, as long as I have my freedom.
