0:00:10 > 0:00:11Hey, everyone, I'm Ayshah.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14This morning, Newsround is looking at the big vote that's got
0:00:14 > 0:00:16the whole country talking.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18In eight days' time, adults are being asked to decide
0:00:18 > 0:00:21if the UK should stay in, or leave a club of countries
0:00:21 > 0:00:23called the European Union.
0:00:23 > 0:00:25So Ricky's travelled to Poland to find out more
0:00:25 > 0:00:33about one of the biggest issues - immigration.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35Welcome to Warsaw, the capital of Poland.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41It's a really busy city, around 2 million people live here.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44There are loads of tourists, coffee shops and interesting buildings.
0:00:44 > 0:00:49And behind me is the old town, completely devastated by bombing
0:00:49 > 0:00:54during the Second World War, and over time it's been rebuilt.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Just like the UK, Poland is a member of the European Union,
0:00:56 > 0:00:59otherwise known as the EU.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Over the last 12 years, since they joined the group
0:01:03 > 0:01:05of countries, hundreds of thousands of people have left Poland
0:01:05 > 0:01:06and moved to the UK.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09That's called immigration, when people decide
0:01:09 > 0:01:11to go to a different country to live and work.
0:01:11 > 0:01:15More on that in just a little bit, but first I have been travelling
0:01:15 > 0:01:19around Warsaw and speaking to kids about what life is like
0:01:19 > 0:01:23here in Poland and what they think of the UK.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27We're heading to Warsaw, which is the capital of Poland.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29'The seat belt signs have been switched on.'
0:01:29 > 0:01:33I think that Poland is beautiful.
0:01:33 > 0:01:38There is amazing food and amazing views.
0:01:38 > 0:01:42A lot of hard-working people.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Cold in winter, hot in summer.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48I love my country, I want to stay here for my life.
0:01:48 > 0:01:55Since Poland joined the EU in 2004 thousands of people have moved
0:01:55 > 0:01:58from here to the United Kingdom.
0:01:58 > 0:02:03It is thought there are almost 800,000 Poles living in the UK.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07That's because there's an agreement between all the countries
0:02:07 > 0:02:11inside the European Union to make it easier for people to move around,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14live and work in other EU countries.
0:02:14 > 0:02:21I actually love the United Kingdom, and I would love
0:02:21 > 0:02:22to one day be there.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24London is really beautiful and one of the most important
0:02:24 > 0:02:25cities on the Earth.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27When I think of the UK, I think
0:02:27 > 0:02:28of British accents.
0:02:28 > 0:02:29Top Gear.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31The Beatles.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32The weather is rainy.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33One Direction.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38Tea, a cup of tea.
0:02:38 > 0:02:43So, back to that big vote.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Well, a lot is being said on both sides when it comes to immigration.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50Campaigners who want the UK to leave the European Union say the number
0:02:50 > 0:02:54of people arriving from other EU countries, including Poland,
0:02:54 > 0:02:58is getting out of control.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Those who want the UK to stay in, disagree.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03They say immigrants do help pay towards things like hospitals,
0:03:03 > 0:03:07schools and other public services.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Leave campaigners believe that if we quit the EU,
0:03:10 > 0:03:13the UK will have more control over who can enter the country.
0:03:13 > 0:03:18But the Remain camp say that isn't true.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Over the last few weeks, you may have heard loads
0:03:22 > 0:03:27of different arguments about what might happen if the UK
0:03:27 > 0:03:30was to leave or stay in the European Union.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33No one knows exactly what would happen, but those big
0:03:33 > 0:03:36decisions could have a big impact on you, and other children
0:03:36 > 0:03:39in the EU club of countries.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42Well, I've been speaking to teams here in Warsaw to find
0:03:42 > 0:03:44out what they think.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46THEY SPEAK POLISH
0:03:46 > 0:03:51Welcome to Poland.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53What you think people in the UK think of Polish people?
0:03:53 > 0:04:00I think that the English people should see Polish people as smart,
0:04:00 > 0:04:06funny and always smiling.
0:04:06 > 0:04:12They think that we are not polite, not nice, they are thinking this
0:04:12 > 0:04:15about us, but it's not true.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18I have been studying English from kindergarten and I would love
0:04:18 > 0:04:20to live there.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23I actually want to stay and study in Poland.
0:04:23 > 0:04:27My uncle, he works in a coffee shop.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32Life in England is more comfortable.
0:04:32 > 0:04:34It's so good that we are in this European Union
0:04:34 > 0:04:38and it's all a community.
0:04:38 > 0:04:46If the UK would leave the EU, it would affect us a lot.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49That's all from me here in Poland.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Make sure you come back at 8:15 for the next
0:04:52 > 0:04:54stop in my EU road trip, where I'll be exploring what impact
0:04:54 > 0:04:59immigration is having back home in the UK.
