BMA committee votes in emergency motion after Tory donor’s comments about MP condemned as racist and misogynist
GPs are calling on the Tory donor Frank Hester to resign from his health tech company after his remarks about Diane Abbott which have been widely condemned as racist and misogynist.
Hester’s company TPP runs the electronic patient records of almost half the medical practices in the UK, making them his main UK clients. On Thursday the BMA’s general practice committee (GPC), which represent all UK GPs, voted for an emergency motion urging Hester to stand down from the company with immediate effect.
