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?

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

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

Where and how did ballet originate?

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

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

A range of alcoholic drinks

Why are Democrats at Q so desperate that they keep taking down my links to comments that prove the residents in Ohio have been filing complaints about the Haitians eating the local wildlife from ponds in the local parks? Election interference

Your home has more comfortable seating and a garden

Entertainment (pre TV and radio)

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.

Why are Trump's and Khan's experiences with authorities in the US and Pakistan similar?

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

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

But now:

What would Spanish sound like if only latin and Greek words were used, like some romance analogy to anglish?

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