i'm brian thomas thanks so much for being with us the european commission is likely to reject at least twenty one thousand budget today opening the door to unprecedented fines the commission says rome's deficit plans are out of control and could trigger another debt crisis that would involve the entire you but italy's government has vowed to stay the course and to defend its flagship citizen's wage for the very poorest italians our correspondent has this look at how people in italy the of the standoff. just south of naples twenty year old lawrence 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 a generous income of up to seven hundred eighty euros

a month but during so things it's unlikely he will ever see any of what's being called the citizens wage 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 many italians will cost billions of euros the most expensive item in a budget which has raised concerns in the european union that italy could soon be sowing the seeds of a financial crisis. lawrence was 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 where we would be there was the. us. is really doing. is really hard on the european union i'm worried about the president's his 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 a populist inefficient giveaway that neither italy nor the e.u. can really afford such a 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. i believe it's right to stand up to the european union. part of an effort to comply and i have left italy behind. on all of that i think the new government will change the situation for the better . off. not far away in front of another

rundown drops and in the city more unemployed neapolitans are queuing 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 voted for the government to walk otherwise we can't live. here and so however isn't convinced that this government or the citizens wage will in any way improve his situation maybe i just have to mow. 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 whack if not initially then somewhere else. you can do it. all italy and brussels have been at odds for weeks over rome spending plans and italy's public debt it is the second highest ratio in the eurozone after

greece a little earlier i spoke with did abuse by brussels has said that if italy is not willing to compromise the consequences could be severe there's of course the fear that this could spiral out of control when comes the point that into the is not able to finance the refinance instead when the spread so the surplus the risk 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 willing 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 triggers their british prime minister trees are may is heading to brussels later today where she's hoping
