Sir, – I find the use of the phrase "pushing (the food) across as if they were feeding a dangerous dog", in describing waiter service in restaurants in London during the present Covid-19 restrictions, as particularly offensive ("The more London's lockdown eases, the clearer the crisis becomes", London Letter, World, July 9th). Denis Staunton could surely find a better turn of phrase. – Yours, etc,
ADRIAN NAUGHTEN,
