Dr Dan Poulter, the MP for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich, who works part-time as a mental health doctor in an NHS hospital, announced he was resigning as a Tory MP.
He said he would not seek re-election to the House of Commons at the next general election. But, he says he envisages a role advising the Labour party on its policies on mental health while focusing more on his NHS work.
Poulter said his experiences on more than 20 night shifts over the last year in a severely overstretched accident and emergency department had been “truly life-changing” and persuaded him to defect to the only party he believed was now really committed to investing in improving the NHS.
He said: “I could not go on as part of that. I have to be able to look my NHS colleagues in the eye, my patients in the eye and my constituents in the eye. And I know that the Conservative government has been failing on the thing I care about most, which is the NHS and its patients.”

3 weeks ago i spent 5 nights in hospital,took 9 hours til i got to lay down on a trolly and 21 hours to get a proper bed,the staff and treatment i got were first class but if the could magic another 20 beds overnight in the Cumberland infirmary overnight it still wouldn't be enough,was reading about HS2 yesterday and the cost per mile has risen to a staggering £394m,imagine if that money was spent on building new hospitals and dental practices.

They obviously saw you as a young man around the town, well able to handle the technological demands of modern society. Take it as a compliment.
The NHS app works pretty well, I order repeat scripts through it and even checked some test results this morning.
