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?

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

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

Why do people believe that global warming is man made?

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?

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

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

What is the opposite personality type of someone with ASPD (antisocial personality disorder)?

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

But now:

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

Why do Trumpers and MAGA Republicans care who is trans and who is gay ECT? If they didn't have a personal interest in transgenderism it shouldn't matter so much then, right?

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

A range of alcoholic drinks

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

I caught my neighbor leaving his 12-year-old son home alone and he has not come back in 6 hours. Should I call CPS?

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.
