I was woken up by requests for media when it was still dark.

I didn't get to sleep until 2 and so feel like a zombie.

I gave so many interviews yesterday that I just talked all day non stop, from morning until night.

The report presented on TV today by the Doctors' Union the BMA - which I believe, along with other Unions funds the pro-abortion activists 'voice for choice' - has given the 20 week campaign a great lift and will guarantee that the campaign stays in the media spotlight over the weekend.

For the BMA to argue that the survival rates of neo nates born 12 years ago should endorse the 24 week limit today, is, as I said yesterday, an act of desperation, but one that suits me and the media opportunities such a biased piece of 'research' provides.

The difference between being a back and front bencher, is that on the front bench you have a team around you and a press officer filtering and handling your media requests - during a profile/feature interview with the Guardian I had to keep interrupting to take other interviews which were deadline driven.

I felt very rude, but what could I do?!

Having agreed to give a speech in Radlett, I have to turn almost all media requests down today which is sad as it means I have lost the opportunity to put my case over for the 20 week campaign on some of the prime time news bulletins. However, I promised to be in Radlett and that's where I will be.

After Radlett I have a surgery in Ampthill, Mid Beds at which Marcus Brigstock will be joining me.

I will blog a photo of proof at about 5pm and let you know what he's doing at one of my surgeries!

And for more, I've done ITV and will do channel 4 news at 7.30.
