Previously a member of the Conservatives, he changed to the SDP and joined the Liberal Democrats on their formation.

He contested the seat at the 1997 election and the 2001 election, coming second again.
He stood again at the 2005 general election for the Lib Dems, this time for the nearby Rossendale and Darwen constituency, coming third. [1]
Michael currently takes more of a back seat role in politics and now is involved part time with Bacup Borough Football Club on the commercial side.
