During this time, he campaigned for a decentralised party, committed to non-violent direct action.[2] He was a Green Party in Northern Ireland candidate for Belfast West at the Northern Ireland Forum election in 1996, on a list which took only 156 votes. At the 1997 general election, he stood in Yeovil, where he took 1.3% of the votes cast. He has also stood for the South West England European Parliament constituency at each election since 1999, heading the party list in 1999 and 2004. The lists took between 7 and 10% of the votes cast, but he was not elected.
