For many, ice cream, pizza and Italy go hand in hand. Now the northern city of Milan has plans to ban the sale of these famous Italian foods late at night. The city’s council is considering the move because of complaints about noise from local residents. Critics of the plan say it will damage local businesses.

Don't worry, it's just an ordinance that prohibits takeaway sales after midnight in certain areas of the city. I live in Milan and last night I ate an excellent pizza!

@paolalunghi2099 20 күн бұрын

I agree. Gelato is delicious. No one wants to damage such a business. They are just trying to meet local people's complaints about night noises and such stuff. Be sure we'll have plenty of homemade gelato. 😅

@richkynguyen5626 20 күн бұрын

Couldn't agree more. News headlines always say that the whole city had something happen, even when the event only happened in a specific area.

why would you prohibit takeaway??

@maxharbig1167 20 күн бұрын

Click bait! Certain places have been banned from providing, after midnight, take away foods that are consumed in the street because of residents complaining about noise levels. BTW gelato is not the same as the ice cream in the UK and elsewhere.

@Vongreimbf109 American English is quite different to British English. Native speakers here in the UK might learn from this, as standards in education here in the UK have sadly declined.

War on makes it sound like there's an epicly huge struggle that's been going on in depth for months and years with tons of attorneys tirelessly fighting day in and day out with tons of money being put into this and loads of protests. All that's actually happening is a few sentences read at a board meeting only to be swept under the rug by next week. Get a life.

Я смотрю много левых каналов и у меня есть мысль: чтобы получить больше сторонников, вам нужно нанять профессионала рынка, который подберет нужных людей с хорошими навыками речи, хорошим внешним видом, образованием и моралью, чтобы доставить идеи. Ваш материал должен быть похож на материал Навального, но с вашей повесткой дня. Почему бы вам не использовать сегодняшние достижения маркетинга в свою пользу? Я смотрелa сегодня встречу с Алексеем Сафоновым и Парфеновым в его детском красном платке с названием партии. кто это предложил? Это выглядит смешно, а не круто. Внешний вид значит многое! Оно должно быть модным, острым, привлекательным. Вам нужно понять. Когда мы помним о революции, мы всегда помним одежду, особенную для нее, это было круто! Песни, которые вы используете - это имеет огромное значение! Вы должны выглядеть круто, как-то продвигать местного производителя и модельеров. Вся ваша энергия уходит на борьбу между вами.
