Why are fewer English people going to their local pubs for a drink? Are they aware that many pubs are shutting down due to lack of customers?

Back in the day (early 20th century and before) the English pub offered things you couldn’t get in a working-class home:

Your home has more comfortable seating and a garden

A range of alcoholic drinks

Two of my family members have recently converted to Islam and have brought shame on my family. How do I get them back into the fold of Hinduism?

Comfortable seating in a warm, cozy environment, or a nice pub garden

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

You can get a wider range of quality drinks at lower prices from a supermarket

Why do flat earthers think using globetrotter, globetard, and other insults will make the educated arguer fall for the silly flat-earth belief?

They need to offer either food of a quality you can’t get at home (true gastro-pub experience) or alternative entertainments - live music, poker nights, sports viewing etc.

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

You can get takeaway or even cook yourself a wider range of food of good quality

How could NASA possibly land on the moon when it's impossible to reach the moon through the Earth's dome? Why are they making up such an obvious lie?

The pubs with the best chance of survival long-term recognize that they can’t just get away with the same 3 beers, ropey wine and pub-grub. Why pay more for something worse than you can get at home for less?

You have to understand what the attraction of the English pub was in the first place.

But now:

Is the Trump-Zelenskyy meeting a preview of what the US is going to do to Taiwan?

In the mid to late 20th century they added food, without the inconvenience of cooking it or washing up.
