GP faith in the Conservative Party has plummeted over their health reforms, with only 12% of the profession saying it is the political party they trust most to manage the NHS.

The Pulse survey of 364 GPs showed Labour was the most trusted on the NHS, with 28% backing the party on managing the health service. Only 12% backed the Conservative Party, 8% each backed the Green Party and the Lib Dems, and 6% said UKIP.

By far the largest percentage (35%) thought no party was trustworthy when it came to managing the NHS.

This margin was also translated to GP voting intentions, with 26% saying they would vote for Labour in the next election and 19% of GPs saying they would vote Conservative.
