He is best known locally for his successful fights against the petrochemical and gas industry. He stopped two oil refineries being built on Canvey Island in the 1970s and early 1980s and, in 2008, stopped a biodiesel plant and a liquid natural gas plant being built. He sings in three local choirs that help raise money for local charities. He worked at the Bank of England for twenty-five years and then was head of security for an Iranian bank, which he worked at for nineteen years until retirement at sixty-five.view less
