WARSAW - Poles vote in a parliamentary election on Sunday which the opposition says will determine the country's democratic standing and place in the European Union, after a bitterly contested campaign dominated by issues of sovereignty and security.

"I know... that they are planning systematically, in cold blood, to take Poland out of the European Union," Donald Tusk, leader of the largest opposition grouping Civic Coalition told supporters.With war raging in neighbouring Ukraine and a migrant crisis brewing, national security and immigration have featured heavily in a campaign that was also marked by a souring of relations with Kyiv over Poland's ban on grain imports.

"He certainly would not have protected us from the flood of Ukrainian grain, because for that you had to have courage - to oppose Germany, to oppose the European Union." The KO leader said he would unblock billions in funds withheld by the EU over rule-of-law concerns on day one after winning the election.

Opinion polls suggest that PiS will remain the largest party in parliament but may fall short of a majority.
