:00:15. > :00:16.This is a special programme all about tomorrow's EU referendum.

:00:17. > :00:31.Today is the last day for people to decide if they think

:00:32. > :00:41.I am at a school in Warwickshire and there will be a debate shortly.

:00:42. > :00:45.There is one day left to decide whether they think the UK should

:00:46. > :00:46.remain or leave the group of 28 countries known as the European

:00:47. > :00:48.Union. Tomorrow's vote could mean big

:00:49. > :00:51.changes for people living in the UK Naz and Ricky have been

:00:52. > :00:55.on a roadtrip to find out what kids think of some

:00:56. > :01:02.of the important issues. We are heading to Warsaw,

:01:03. > :01:07.which is the capital of Poland. Just like the UK, Poland is a member

:01:08. > :01:10.of the European Union and, over the last 12

:01:11. > :01:13.years since they joined that group of countries,

:01:14. > :01:15.hundreds of thousands of people have left Poland

:01:16. > :01:18.and moved to the UK. The life in England

:01:19. > :01:23.is more comfortable. I actually want to stay

:01:24. > :01:26.and study in Poland. If the UK would leave the EU,

:01:27. > :01:29.it would affect us a lot. This part of Southampton has seen

:01:30. > :01:34.a lot of changes over the last ten years or so,

:01:35. > :01:37.and it's not uncommon to hear someone speaking a different

:01:38. > :01:41.language walking down the street. I think immigration is good,

:01:42. > :01:44.as long as it's controlled. A lot of immigrants come to

:01:45. > :01:48.get a better quality of life, but that might have a negative

:01:49. > :01:51.impact on, like, For many of us, Spain is a place

:01:52. > :02:01.we like to come to on our holidays, but thousands of people from the UK

:02:02. > :02:03.have moved to live here The community with Europe and the UK

:02:04. > :02:12.is very unique, and I think I am not really too fussed about it,

:02:13. > :02:18.because it doesn't really It's the only part of the UK

:02:19. > :02:25.which shares a land border with another European country,

:02:26. > :02:28.but I've been speaking to kids who live really close to the border

:02:29. > :02:32.and asking them how they think that If they vote out and they start

:02:33. > :02:39.putting checkpoints in the south, it might be a lot of hassle,

:02:40. > :02:43.like queues and people trying It might affect me.

:02:44. > :02:46.It might not. I am curious to see,

:02:47. > :02:56.if we left, what would happen. Well, despite the fact that children

:02:57. > :02:58.can't vote in the referendum, it's still an important topic

:02:59. > :03:09.with people holding You have to be over the age of 18 to

:03:10. > :03:12.vote. At this school, the children have been campaigning. This is the

:03:13. > :03:18.Vote Leave side of things over here we have the Vote Remain side. Lots

:03:19. > :03:23.of young people all over the UK are taking part in their own versions of

:03:24. > :03:26.the referendum on Thursday. I was here yesterday to find out how the

:03:27. > :03:28.campaigning was getting on. Take a look.

:03:29. > :03:39.Hi, I'm Louis, and we are on Vote Remain.

:03:40. > :03:46.so red is Leave and blue is, obviously, Stay.

:03:47. > :03:48.And there are banners, balloons, people wearing

:03:49. > :03:51.different coloured T-shirts, and it is a good atmosphere.

:03:52. > :03:55.It is so important to get involved and, even if you can't vote,

:03:56. > :03:59.It is very, kind of, busy, and everyone wants to know more

:04:00. > :04:06.So, just like the millions of adults who will be voting tomorrow,

:04:07. > :04:08.the children at this school will also be taking part in their

:04:09. > :04:13.This is their ballot paper, and they will be voting

:04:14. > :04:16.whether or not they think the UK should remain in or leave

:04:17. > :04:21.They will be popping them into the box just like that,

:04:22. > :04:39.We have got three big issues to debate and we will talk about

:04:40. > :04:44.immigration, trade and travel. Let's start with the first Mac camp. Why

:04:45. > :04:49.do you think we would be better off outside the EU?

:04:50. > :04:52.More jobs and more homes to be built.

:04:53. > :04:56.-- Vote Leave. It is quite expensive.

:04:57. > :05:02.Better off to stay in? When people come into the United

:05:03. > :05:07.Kingdom, they are paying taxes to us, so that helps or the houses we

:05:08. > :05:12.need to pay for and schools and hospitals.

:05:13. > :05:15.Let's move on to trade. Why do you think we're better in the EU with

:05:16. > :05:20.Craig? Around 3 million jobs are linked to

:05:21. > :05:28.trade in the UK. What about Vote Leave?

:05:29. > :05:33.If we leave the EU, we will not have to negotiate trade deals with them.

:05:34. > :05:38.Let's move on to travel. Why do you think we are better staying within

:05:39. > :05:42.the EU when it comes to travel? Thanks to the EU, our lights and

:05:43. > :05:48.mobile phones are cheaper. That is your opinion. What about

:05:49. > :05:52.you, Luke, better off out? If we leave, we have control over

:05:53. > :05:54.our own borders and we will be able to control who comes in and who does

:05:55. > :05:59.not. A lot of debate going on here. More

:06:00. > :06:00.from these guys in half an hour on newsround. They sure you tune in.

:06:01. > :06:04.Bye-bye.
