Speaking to Laura Kuenssberg and the BBC, Dr. Poulter said:
“I found it increasingly difficult to look my NHS colleagues in the eye and my patients in the eye and my constituents in the eye with good conscience.
“And I feel that the NHS deserves better than it has at the moment in terms of how it’s run and governed.
“The party I was elected into valued public services, it had a compassionate view about supporting the more disadvantaged in society. I think the Conservative Party today is in a very different place. Its focus is not on delivering or supporting high-quality public services.”
