Nicholas first stood for election to Parliament in 1969 at a by-election in Newcastle-under-Lyme and again in the same constituency at the General Election in 1970. He was elected to Parliament after winning Macclesfield in a by-election in September 1971.
After 39 years as a hard working constituency Member of Parliament Nicholas stood down at the May 2010 General Election. He will be remembered for the service he gave to Macclesfield and for the help he gave to many of its people, organisations and businesses.
Nicholas will continue to live locally with his wife Ann, former MP for Congleton, and hopes to continue to be associated with many local organisations and to help where he can. He will also spend more time with his seven grandchildren."
