Taxed out of existence to pay for Government jobs. Then when the industry is totally destroyed the Government says it is done for your benefit. Just ask the Scottish.

People must be drinking Guinness at home now while watching RU-vid. Once this stupid American election is over and RU-vid is shut down, they will want to go out to celebrate Trump's victory.

😂 pubs 😂 it was a place to catch up with local news & to catch up with local people 😢 now 😢 high-price to have a mug,

Great info

This title has to be click bate the Irish invented the night out!

It's a global phenomenon. Alcohol consumption has been declining steadily since the mid 2000's. And more recent research has shown that even one alcoholic drink is bad for you. The previous theory that it had some healthful effects has been shown to be false. Baby boomers invented alcoholism, and they are aging out.

About 8 years ago my neighbours in Australia (big drinkers) went to Ireland for a holiday. They said there was no way they could afford to drink in pub.

I was told a number of years ago that the first hit the Irish public scene was banning smoking. People just preferred to stay at home then.

mohammad says no alcohol. so the pub will close every where soon enough

Something needing consideration is the cost of living, and how this is, with private equity buying up everything. You touched upon the history of and the character of these businesses, private equity are soulless profiteering entities. You claimed it yourself, that in the U.K. many of these businesses are owned by one company. In which case they really wouldn't care where you take your business.

Well, this is sobering. Private initiative is going the way of the Dodo.

If they would start playing Latin dance music business will improve.

So in a nutshell, The government doesn't want the "PUB" to succeed. Vote accordingly.

Sounds like sobriety has broken out in Ireland. Never thought that would happen. 😂

Consider the larger picture; it is the destruction of the FAMILY owned business. Whether that be a farm, ranch, restaurant, pub, grocery store. Those who think they own the world do NOT allow family owned business outside of the ones they own/control.

Gov taxing everyone to the hilt Cafes Coffee shots pubs going after farmers turf cutters got rid of sugar production etc Theres a theme going on here

Good riddance . Alcoholism making machines .

You better do something about it then huh? Vote smart.

Taxed out of business. Classic.

I love the Irish pub atmosphere, what I don't love is the massive influx of immigrants that swell the streets and generally take away from the Irish experience.

Just wait till the Sharia law kicks in, no more drinking for anyone

Drinking in general is just dying off. Way down in Canada as well.

This video is very informative. GRMA for posting!

The only important demographic don't like alcohol,so expect the net to close everything we like and they don't.

Ban smoking, ban the party people.

Thankfully I done my drinking (excessive at times T.G.) in the 70s and early 80s. When the crack was mental. Every pub was rocking full of devilment and laughter 7 nights a week. A bad thing maybe who knows. Amazingly the vast majority of people I grew up with and partied with settled down and done well in life. Just became occasional drinkers Marriage, mortgages, children etc took precident. Sadly now people tell me you can dial a number or go on line and get your highs delivered to the door. Married couples not young are at this with young children in the. home. Culture has changed completely. That's the modern outlooking country we live in now. Glad I grew up when I did great times, Young people tell now is the best of times. Good for them, keep her lit. Slainte, 🥂🥃🥃🥂🍻🍺🍷🍺🍻

It's affecting pubs, bars, and clubs worldwide. With the rising costs of everything, it's cheaper to drink at home if even that can be afforded.

I would rather have a shot in a pub, than for "health" reasons.

Raise the taxes on alcohol higher.

Alcohol culture is nasty and people are waking up to that fact.

People are supposed to stay home, not to come together and socialize, and the good old traditions are to be discarded. It is an agenda.

Guess its much like Aussie pubs. Since prices went nuts, and not being allowed a smoke with my beer, I quit pubs.

👍👍

I loved getting down the pub to see my mates and have a laugh, but its all gone now.

Miss the days of Jackie's Army

Cost is one issue but quality is a problem too. I saw a report on Guinness recently which really was saying that the only reason that there was any body or taste was entirely dependent on the gas content not the basic ingredients. I gave up drinking their foreign extra when it went down to 7.0%ABV. It is now 5.5%

Mourning like the decline off 90%+ depression rates is a bad thing. Id blame deliveroo.

After covid i sit in a bar...entertainment barstaff on their phones and the sports channel no one is interested in. And, the price of a pint we helped them with our taxes and what do we get.

Young people don't drink as much - plus, like everything these days, drinks are prohibitively expensive. Ireland is ridiculously expensive for what you get...

It's not just pubs, it's people too. The United Kingdom are not having enough kids. Thanks for having this. channel too. I think pubs are the center of a culture.

they are trying to reduce alcohol consumption, using policy to dictate....just like petrol, they are using policy to change it.....social engineering

Wars are expensive.

less pubs = less drunks
