Close the Borders of the United Kingdom to Prevent the Spread of Coronavirus.
The UK is massive people-transport hub, and leaving borders opens only encourages the transfer of virus from country to country via travelling carriers.
Not closing the borders is clearly not working for the UK. And it is proven to be highly effective in other countries where borders have been restricted (e.g. Australia). We need to act now, as the NHS reaches a critical point in many highly-populated areas.
