> UK English?

Not really. Somewhat old fashioned / pretentious.

> I've heard the following "Let's be done with ..."

Probably a little less common than "Let's have done with ...", although both are valid English. Add and old-fashioned tag and/or alternative translations if you want to, but there's no reason to change it.

> Perhaps one of these would be even better.
> Let's quit arguing.
> Let's stop this argument.

Maybe, at a pinch, the second of the two, but certainly not the first.
