Many will get the message but won't act on it if they aren't personally afraid of catching COVID. It's one of those situations where compliance is for the benefit of others, and frequently in conflict with the interest of the individual.
Enforcement is the only way if compliance is really needed, and the easiest way of doing that is to close the pubs or at least have the powers to close those who don't succeed with compliance.
Our local is actually quite good. Small interior, one bubble in, one out, Post Office queue-style route from the entrance passes the bar where you get your drinks, to the back yard where there are some spaced apart seating/standing areas, and a party tent with more separated tables in it. There is a separate route back to the pub entrance for refills.
