Yes 200% facetious, and I agree with the sentiments of your post. I just don't feel in a position to tell other people how or where to spend their hard earned cash when I don't know their situation, and as such can't criticise the choices they make.

It's not about how people spend their money in this case though. It's the morals they have. Or lack of

While I agree with the sentiment I think you’re missing just how bad of a situation some people are in financially. I have friends who’s only escape is a few pints in the pub, if they can only afford to go to a Spoons then I’m not gonna tell them they’re wrong for doing that.

If you have a bit of money then it’s a different case.
 
I'm not a regular by any means but I think the woodman Arms in Normanby is thriving and does a great pint of magnet for a cracking price.

Places like cricket clubs are a great place to have a reasonably priced pint whilst watching local and TV sport.

I went to Copenhagen a few years ago and I was paying £8 a pint. Its a one off thing that I'm glad I experienced but obviously not an ideal situation for a few daily pints.

Trendy craft beer and micropubs are doing some great things but again...... Perhaps not suitable for that pint after work in most occasions due to location, cost, environment, offering.

A British way of life that has been decimated by repeated useless lockdowns that you screamed for I believe
 
I don’t see the link, forcing people to go to work with any illness is obviously wrong as is locking healthy people down when as a recent report by the John Hopkins university concluded these lockdowns had at best a 0.6% effect on deaths but had a huge detrimental societal and economic effect.

Some context for this study: https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucel...kdowns-were-ineffective-against-covid-19/amp/

The paper isn’t even endorsed by Johns Hopkins:

Fact check: Working paper isn't proof COVID-19 restrictions don't work, experts say

Social media users cite a working paper from economists to claim pandemic lockdowns didn't work, but public health experts say it's deeply flawed.

It works if you want traditional pubs priced out of the market and soulless “fast food for pubs” chains to dominate. If you care about your social spaces, small businesses or the traditional British public it really doesn’t work

Sad isn’t it? People will sacrifice a lovely night out, let a great British tradition die, stifle small businesses and fund a company with a terrible record in treating it’s staff. Just for a cheap pint. Such a sad country we live in

"Overworked” seems to be an understatement for the employees at the Tesla factory. Back in February, an employee by the name of Jose Morgan published a blogspot describing allegations of mandatory overtime, a high rate of injuries as well as low wages at the factory."

What a hypocrite. :oops:

So your judging people on where they choose to drink?

Yes. If it's in a place that treats its staff like rubbish, that is damaging a traditi8nal English way of life and is killing small business. Absolutely yes. Some of us have morals
