Er... as a matter of fact this news piece is very imprecise, as anyone reading Italian newspapers can attest.
The Lucca story is that they banned ethnical foodstalls from the inner city, which is a medieval architecture beauty and thrives on its historical identity. Kebab, Chow Mein and Sushi can be found just outside of the small area of the ancient citadel.
Milano has no ban at all.
The minister is a member of a political party founded on xenophobia and which is widely criticized by most Italians. Said party comes up every single day with absurd proposals ("let's change the constitution!", "let's put local armies in the streets!", "stop paying taxes to the Evil Capital City"...) and it is obvious they went along for the ride and for a little publicity.
