He became leader of the Home Rule League operating independently of the Liberal Party and winning great influence by his balancing of constitutional, radical, and economic issues, and by his skillful use of parliamentary procedure. He became leader of the Irish Parliamentary Party that held the balance of power in the House of Commons during the Home Rule debates of 1885–1886. His promising career became mired in a personal scandal from which he never recovered and ultimately he was unable to secure his lifelong goal of obtaining Irish Home Rule.
