BMA committee votes in emergency motion after Tory donor’s comments about MP condemned as racist and misogynist
The health tech boss and Tory donor Frank Hester is facing calls to resign from GPs, his firm’s main UK clients, 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 GP practices in the UK. 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.
