7:02 am
went to naples to see how the face off is viewed by the people there. just south of naples twenty year old lawrence of copa is on his way to the job center italy's new populist government has promised that this job seeker certificate could soon and him and millions of other poor italians and generous income of up to seven hundred eighty euros a month but durrance of things it's unlikely he will ever see any of what's being called the citizen's wage no i don't i don't believe in this government citizen which start was meant for one then the immigrants were cut off from dues then the people used to leave with their parents as me then the people who own the property like a house so it's got is where you would use the baby and i think in the end just a little bunch of people are going to get its. citizens wage eagerly awaited by
7:03 am
many italians will cost billions of euros it's the most expensive item in the budget which has raised concerns in the european union that italy could soon be sowing the seeds of a financial crisis. gordon so he's worried that italy's increasingly strained relationship with the e.u. could play a big part in breaking up the union. yeah i think i'm word we would be there was the. us. is really doing. is really hard hitting on the european union i'm worried about but there are instance views put him in the minority here in the south with the wiring levels of youth unemployment most people support the government's hard stance towards the e.u. and have high hopes that the citizens wage could change their life the question is though can it really stimulate the country's economy or is it just
7:04 am
a populist inefficient giveaway that neither italy nor the e.u. can really afford thirty two year old moto who has been without a job for four years has a clear answer he supports rome picking a fight with brussels. see i believe it's right to stand up to the european union. governments i think to comply and have left italy behind. went on all of i think the new government will change the situation for the better . not far away in front of another rundown drops and in the city more unemployed neapolitans are keen to learn more about the citizens wage to support the new government. in this period i hope that something good could happen. i hope i hope so i trust this government i
7:05 am
voted for the walk otherwise we complement. gordon so however isn't convinced that this government over citizens wage will in any way improve his situation maybe i just have to my. yes where. it's not personally open for i'd like to say and change something but it's getting harder and harder to fight. you know keep looking for one if not in italy then somewhere else. you could do it legally but if to get more on this we're joined now by our correspondent dan rivers in brussels good morning brown is brussels actually prepared to punish rome over its deficit spending the u.k. vision is obliged to. the fiscal policies and the budgets of all member states not only italy but when it comes to italy it is certainly necessary to discipline this
7:06 am
populace to government and rome and in the end they also have the possibilities to to apply fines but this is still way down the road that's maybe come in in this couple of months it's a very long procedure was many steps interests and all member states of the eurozone also have to agree to this it's not only that you commissions also the fed the member states and the question more is will the markets watch all of this unfolding of this drama and when will they pull the trigger on the italian debt ok we saw people in naples also watching this drama and hoping hoping at least that something will occur on the side of the commission could it in the end be ready to compromise and accept higher debt levels for italy. rather the commission always has reiterated that it is of course willing to negotiate was to lead to to talk about certain measures in this budget but so far no signals from the room actually
7:07 am
to talk about the budget it's more or less a power probe now between that you commission and this right wing populist government in rome which says it's really first and we don't care about the rules in brussels so there's always openness to talk of cause it's not mean the the wish of the commission to do this and to punish italy because the elections coming up in europe next year nobody has an interest here to have this hefty showdown that would give populace many arguments to vote against you in europe ok now the markets are concerned about tallying debt of course what about politicians in brussels how do they say the ballooning deficit and italy do they think it's laying the foundation for a new euro zone crisis there's of course the fear that this could spiral out of control then comes the point that into the is not able to finance
7:08 am
a refinance it's that when the spread so the surplus the risk so a plus telling that is too high that it could happen that italy is not able to pay its bills or to servants to service its debts and then this question is what happens then europe is not availing to bail out italy like it did with greece the european central bank is not willing to buy italian bonds and the consequence could be that italy is forced out of the euro zone and even out of the you and this of course would be a doomsday scenario for everybody here in brussels that is very much an apocalyptic scenario there were expecting some signals on this later today from brussels for now battery get thanks very much. well the british prime minister treason may heads to brussels today as talks on britain's exit from the european union continue after agreeing a breaks a deal with european negotiators may needs the backing of the leaders of the u. member states ahead of us on the that's set for sunday she's heading to those talks
7:09 am
after surviving a challenge to her leadership at home for the moment elise members of her cabinet have met for the first time since two senior ministers resigned in protest over what they called a bracks a deal that was bad for britain those resignations sparked that bid to topple may by those who also think she's given in to the you their efforts failed of course and it's unclear if her opponents might try a new bit. you know his london correspondent baggage moss met lawmaker and a sober a one of the most vocal remain ors in the governing conservative party she asked of the prime minister would in the end get the parties and parliaments backing for her bracks a deal. so i guess we have looks like the no confidence vote against prime minister here is not acting it's dying so close together a withdrawal agreement through thing i think of the moment she's going to be in great difficulty because it's not just the fact that there is this group of hard
7:10 am
ideologically driven vets it is a conservative benches that were not rich but there are other people on the conservative benches who are looking at this when they don't like it and that includes people like myself who are in no doubt that the best deals that we have is the community of you and of course the labor party the other opposition parties will say things against it so the movie is very difficult to see how she's going to get it through parliament and start with no deal looming are you going to vote for her deal there's no i think we absolutely have to get this clear that there is no security corridor in the house of commons. no deal is no option so it's a get back to the choice is actually going to be between them or what i think it's increasingly the view of many here is that if she can't get it to be part of this weave that she does get it like it's a must go back to the mississippi where we see the reality of graves and the fact that actually we still don't know where our final landing place really it's imperative it goes back to this would be and we have faced people displaced and
7:11 am
she's a choice between may and mrs graham still has a reserve and how do you see that planning out and what sacristan says what has to happen so that you actually get people say well i think that i think that if we get into a situation of parliament where there's this impasse and there's no way through it then where else are we to go the other back but other than back with me where you have that and so it is a possibility but i think most importantly i think as the british people begin to see the realities. in all its complexities and its consequences which are bad for. they're seeing that actually the deals we have got with european union which we'll never be able to get again. we think we will never be able to guess good deals. because they're beginning to understand and see i think their research is what it should be for this matter should return to the focus you do have to to do to make the case cheap a lot in the next six months we will keep all that money that is in terms of if you
7:12 am
get this was real and you are very passionate fighting for it i mean also get i guess a lot of a disaster tea and even threats going here can you explain that to us we have three people who are able to present overseas custodial prison sentences for death threats to me and to our members who are going to check i.d.'s and i had a death threat only last week and it becomes almost a shrug of the shoulders because the these are just serious death threats yet the police credible so to say associated with actually proceed to stage a prisoner subsequent to that one percent you go through is of course it is appalling that threats are easy to sort of hold it straight it's affairs in britain that everybody has to answer this. and a sobering there are conservative party member with a big mosque now for some of the other stories making the news that. from critics have voiced concern over the expected appointment of a russian general as president of the international police body interpol alexander pickup truck is up for election of the summit today the vote follows the

7:14 am
a somewhat famous mariachi band plaza on a main street that is lined with boss restaurants stance clubs and sports the unavoidable local absurdity which serves as a teeth for tourists these are the images the city of tijuana wants the world to see in these days more than ever. the reality is very different to one of the sheltering almost three thousand migrants from central america so called caravan migrants in the benito kooris sports complex. but like at the other they meet at this get that now with the number of migrants we haven't found the situation is under control and manageable we are cooperating and have the support of the state police and other. security agencies. control of the situation for no authority so expect that by the end of the week an additional nine hundred migrants will have arrived in the city that influx could
7:15 am
make conditions worst here things could become unmanageable quickly a major concern not only for city officials and some locals a concern shared even by cindy and her three sisters the three young women arrived here just hours ago making their way from honduras to thirty three days they got separated from two additional siblings and their father still cindy can't wait to get out of and into the united states. we. feel unhappy we're going to ask for asylum in the united states because we ran away from our country. and we're afraid in our country. because. we don't have work there. most of all and all of us were afraid of the violence so that's cindy and her sisters know that asking for asylum in the u.s. is one thing but that actually qualifying for and getting it is much harder these days. everybody has god has hope. hope we're
7:16 am
not others don't want to take their chances starting the legal asylum process is not an option for them. we'll take the risk and jump the fence francisco also from under us and for the last four days in south until says he lost faith in the u.s. asylum process why i. want to ask for asylum. because i heard that out of a thousand people about ten get us on about you know and i see no less i live. to one and for most of the migrants just a layover on their journey to their final destination united states of america. and president trump says he will not be imposing sanctions on saudi arabia for the murder of a u.s. based saudi journalist the cia has concluded that saudi arabia's crown prince mohammed bin solemn on directed the murder of one of his most vocal critics jamal
7:17 am
khashoggi president said the economic advantages of good relations with riyadh outweighed all other considerations. it's been called a slap in the face to the cia u.s. president trump siding with saudi arabia against his own intelligence agencies the cia is reportedly confident the saudi crown prince was behind the murder of writer jamal khashoggi but trump says he's not risking washington's relationship with riyadh over the matter they did make a determination that it just like i said i think it was very baby maybe he did they did not make that assessment the cia is looked at it they've studied it a lot they have nothing definitive and the fact is maybe he did baby did right now we have oil prices in great shape i'm not going to destroy the world economy and i'm not going to destroy the economy for our country by being forward with saudi arabia so. these images show shock she entering the saudi consulate in
7:18 am
istanbul on october second just before he was murdered in saudi arabia claims it was rogue agents who killed him they say crown prince mohammed bin solomon had nothing to do with it had misha in mobile a mother. in washington turkey's foreign minister pressed for a full accounting of the killing after talks with the u.s. secretary of state mike pompei oh. yeah that would either be it is our right to get more information if there is an impossible the investigation comes to a standstill or we cannot fully cooperate then we may have to apply for an international inquiry. but even amid demands to punish saudi arabia over the killing trump's comments could end the debate over how his administration will respond to the matter the u.s. relationship with saudi arabia is highly profitable with billions of dollars and arms sales every year critics say that's allowing riyadh to get away with murder.

7:25 am
problems they get clogged up very quickly and stop working the diesel quality is too low here. without emissions control systems the diesels pump unfiltered toxic gases and particles straight into the air and because regular inspections for cars are not legally required in ukraine exhaust systems can be manipulated without fear of detection experienced mechanics can easily remove emissions control units and replace them with a section of straight pipe this one comes from a rhino diesel if a converter is clogged up the vehicle won't start. and then we hook it up with a diagnostic computer the problem is very often a clogged up catalytic converter sometimes we cut the converter out sometimes we can repair it and he's the. ukrainian city of lords has a population of two hundred forty thousand the air is foul and eighty two percent
