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?

Your home has more comfortable seating and a garden

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

A range of alcoholic drinks

Why do some women squirt and some don't?

But now:

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

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 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

Why do women stubbornly refuse to let men lead, even though they are attracted to the man, and the man both loves and desires them? Why do they get angry and blame the man when he gets fed up and walks away, when it's entirely their own fault?

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

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