The question is what percentage of people crossing UK boarders are doing so in the name of goods distribution, compared to business/pleasure.

No it isn't. The point made by Ed and Thrasher was we should close the borders like they did in NZ. I'm pointing out why that's a bit more difficult here.

I don't know what the split is, but I'd guess at less than 10%.

I'll take that bet! Tenner?

We could have closed borders while allowing freight distribution.

How?

The Isle of Man seemed to managed well.

Edit; just to clarify, closed border not necessarily in the sense of no one in or out, but with quarantine in hotel and such like other countries.
