Closed Close the Borders of the United Kingdom to Prevent the Spread of Coronavirus.

Closed on

We call on the Government to close the borders of the United Kingdom for all but essential travel excluding imports of supplies and medical equipment.

Boris Johnson has introduced many restrictions on life in the UK but has not closed the borders to countries that could still pose a threat via transmission of the virus: on the plane, airport or other public spaces even if symptoms are not present.
