He was elected as the Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for Leominster in 1974; he stood down in 2001 after changing parties.
He sat in the House of Lords as a Labour peer.
In February 1974, he was elected for Leominster, having been selected for the seat in March 1973.
That same year, he was appointed vice-chairman, Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (UK Branch).
In 1979, he was appointed Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Minister of Transport, Norman Fowler, Executive Member, Inter-Parliamentary Union (British Group) and Founding Co-Chairman, British-Irish Inter-Parliamentary Body.
Outside politics, Temple-Morris was appointed Chairman of the Macleod Group, an association of left-of-centre Conservative MPs, in 1979.
Temple-Morris married Taheré Khozeimé-Alam (the daughter of Amir-Hossein Khozeimé Alam of Dezashib who fled to London from Iran in 1979) in 1964 in London.

Speaking after his resignation, the MP told BBC Radio 5 Live: "I'm not surprised in all the circumstances and not a little bit relieved in view of the unhappy state of politics of the Conservative Party for some years now."

However, on Saturday 20 June 1998 he joined the Labour Party but stood down as an MP at the 2001 general election.
