For many years, he was a member of the Socialist People's Party, through which he entered the Socialist Electoral League, later the Socialist Left Party, which he left in protest against what he perceived as a shift to the right under Erik Solheim. From 1993 to 2000 he was a member of the collective leadership of the Communist Party of Norway. He left that party in 2003 in protest against the party's shift toward Stalinism. Underlid was a member of the Movement for Socialism. Underlid died in Bergen on July 31, 2016.
