This was most likely due to Lennon’s faithful followers using whatever means they could employ to dump on somewhere they had not visited, probably would never visit, but ejecting their hero just had to be A Very Bad Thing. The sequence of events was all too predictable. “Just been kicked out of Hawksmoor steak house for no reason. Literally juts [sic] had our starters”.
So said Lennon’s pal, former EDL Guramit Singh. Followed by The Great Man himself in full Headmaster mode. “Full campaign coming soon [Hawksmoor] your discriminatory behaviour will not be tolerated, please tell your CEO will beckett to contact me” he thundered. And there was more.
“These are the other companies that are part of the Hawksmoor group , I will be contacting each of them to understand whether they support discrimination against patriots”. But they aren’t part of the Hawksmoor group. On he whined: “How can you say it’s not political when your staff or guests issue could only have been with my political views?” But the real question went unanswered.
And that, for all those who have donated, and continue to donate, to Lennon’s endless appeals for funds, is the question of how much that lunch at Hawksmoor might have cost. Who was paying? Yes, the restaurant waived all charges when they asked the party to leave, but what might have been the final tally had they stayed? Fortunately, Hawksmoor’s website provides us with a sight of the menu, and the cost of all that upmarket dining.
He also mentions starters. What d’you reckon? Hawksmoor smoked salmon and Guinness Bread, perhaps. Which adds £16 to the bill.
On to steaks: one of Lennon’s posts shows lots of steaks. How about a nice 350 gramme fillet steak? Lovely. And that adds another £57 to the total. Plus an additional £4 for one of those rather upmarket sauces.
Not forgetting sides: we saw chips, too. Beef dripping chips. And maybe some buttered English greens. Each costs £7, so that’s another £14.
What to wash it down with? How about a couple of Hawksmoor Lagers? The least expensive item on the beer menu. Two at £6.75 makes £13.50.
And there’s just got to be pudding. A Chocolate anglaise, perhaps. A snip at just £10. All of which adds up to a total of £126.50. Put the service charge and a tip on top of that, and you won’t have much change from £150.
Anyone out there still thinking that bankrolling Lennon is anything more than spraying your assets up the nearest wall might care to read The Great Man’s superior insights into what is happening on the US West Coast right now, where initially peaceful protests have become rather less than peaceful, after Combover Crybaby Donald Trump sent in the National Guard uninvited.
Cue Lennon pearls of wisdom: “America is being destroyed from within yet again … Soros paid agitators mobilizing the invaders to attack … Round them all up and deport them together, along with the Soros family and associates”. Wibble. Hatstand. Yet he effortlessly takes his followers for marks while being prepared to blow rather a lot of money on Loadsamoney Lunches.
Right now, he’s in the Bahamas. While appealing for money. Er, hello mugs.

Where's the (expensive) beef?
Britain is a nation mostly of far right racist mugs and Micawbers who support psychopathic wars, genocide and deliberate impoverishment of its most vulnerable people.
Therefore a tinpot nazi like Lennon won't have a problem raising money. Especially among the paranoid flag wavers in the Gnome Counties "besieged" by Muslamics storming Vera Lynn's White Cliffs.
Cough up, mugs. The Fourth Reich is nigh. It's what you've always wanted.
I know the right are thicker than tar mixed with pig poo, but do they not realise (still) that private companies can prevent from entering, toss out, and bar from their premises whoever they see fit?
Even the laws they're supposed to abide by are largely ignored, so fat chance when there is no law against tossing people out the clientele don't like much.
As for discrimination, these dimwits still labour under the misapprehension that people objecting to their foul views is 'discrimination'. It is not. Well, not until fagman gets in and makes it so..
On the flipside, just try arguing with a bouncer or landlord that tossing you out is 'discrimination' - even if it is. These idiots live in a fantasy World, where 'dark people' complain and get everything, while they are picked on.
Alas, the hard data says otherwise. But since when did the right care about facts?
He has this lunch. And then goes to the Bahamas.. he really knows how to take the mickey of his followers, many of whom, probably struggle with day to day living. Give him his credit !
I wonder if the Bahamas Police Department is aware of Lennon's crackpot racism.
Could get hilarious if he got an extreme "tan"......a honky with burnt skin.
Not half as much as you though, Tankie, eh? Historical materialism innit.
We can hear you panting from here.
Tommy not used to being the tossEE, eh? Breaks the habit of a lifetime.
Yes, unusual for him not to be the tosser in any given situation..
Well in, me ol' Micawber1. I knew that'd bring you up like a salmon for the bait.
You Gnome Counties Gammons are SO predictable. Which is why it's easy to forecast what the
Quiff Quisling will do next.
Nevertheless, have a nice day at the Pearly King and Queen Festival. Charlie will be along shortly to cut the tape and help you wave the flag.
Lennon? Pffffttt.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Oh dear, me old Tankie.
To extend your metaphor if I may, it looks as if the salmon has spat out your parochial bait and, in the immortal words of Smokey Robinson (as interpreted by the Marvelettes, Grace Jones and Massive Attack), the Hunter has Got Captured by the Game.
Wikipedia is so helpful and only ever a click away. Viz:
‘Home Counties: Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Essex, Kent and Surrey are generally seen as members, as they all border London.’
NB ‘Border: (of a country or area) be adjacent to (another country or area).’
All together now, Tankie, as we say when we gather round the old joanna down ar the old Bull and Bush!
‘What's this ol' world comin' to?
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game……’ tum tee tum tum tum……..
Awww c'mon me ol' Micawber1. Take your medicine like a Gammon.
It's GNOME Counties. Not in Wikipedia. Do keep up.
Tremendous scenes, you getting off on internet panting though. Worth it for that alone.
Tsk tsk.
'ere, yew avna gow at Tommy agyne?!
Towldcha before, lye orf. Eez wanav as ee iz. Syvn as fram orlsortsa Jonny Forrinahs. Eez ernd evry penny wot we givim. Jas lav the littl darlin.
Ad that Jim Dyvidson in the backer me cab las week. A propah geezah im. Sed ee new me best myte Nick, haha.
Gawd bless the memry of gud owld Enoch.
Sorry, Tankie. I'd always put what I saw as your regular misspelling of 'Home' down to ignorance, but never had the heart to put you right.
So it's intentional, is it? But Gnome Counties doesn't make sense, does it, as the Gnome Counties, unlike the Home Counties, don't exist. What is it you're trying to say?
Or is it, perhaps, an attempt at a Tankie joke? You know 'Gnome' sounds like 'Home', arf arf, that kind of thing.
Humour in Britain is famously regional and I'm afraid that you'd need something a little wittier than that if you were ever tempted to ply your trade as the UK's leading Historical Materialist comic down here in Babylon.
But don't let me put you off. Try watching some old 1980s videos of Alexei Sayle on YouTube. He did quite well with that sort of thing for a while.
Tough luck me ol' Micawber1. Paragraphs of bullshit just won't cut it, as Quisling "Labour" has found. 0/10. Must try harder.
Keef " 'friend' of 'Lord' Ali" Stürmer would approve though. If he can tear himself away from Zionism and supporting the start of World War 3 and genocide in Palestine.
Still, have a nice day in lalaland.
Never mind that lads!
Sign this petition and stop red Tory MPs taking bribes from 'healthcare' spiv corporations.

It strikes me as very telling that Bertie would rather make anti socialist jokes than insult Tommy Robinson.
Bloody Nora, Ed. How many points are you able to miss in one 18 word post?
Tankie is clearly unable to explain his Gnome Counties joke(?) and has sought shelter in distraction as usual.. Give him a hand if you can.
And maybe at the same time let us know by what tortured logic you are able to justify the bizarre statement in your post above.
12:59.
Gosh.
U OK hun. U sound unwell.
QED, Ed (re Tankie's @ 17.39).
But don't let his evasiveness affect your desire to make yourself clear. Unless you imagine that Tankie and his Spartist juvenilisms embody socialism, how do you justify 'anti-socialist jokes' in your post?
Serious question. You made the claim. Justify it.
23:34.
Sad it keeps you up late me ol' Micawber1.
Must be because all your "heroes" and "causes" keep turning into far right marshmallow bullshit.
Have a nice Führer Day.
I don't have much 2 add but I understood the gnome counties joke
23.34 on a Saturday night might be late up there in the barren wastes of Clogland, Tankie, but down here in Babylon we're just getting ready to go out.
Still no answer, though, I see. Just like last time.
Thanks for your contribution, Malcolm, but don't keep it to yourself. What's the 'joke'?:
Is it 'gnome' sounds a bit like 'home', arf arf?
Is it some 1950s reference to the suburban garden gnome with the implication that gardens are irredeemably bourgeois and suburbs only exist in the South?
Or is it some allusion, for reasons known only to Tankie, to Wilson's famous 1960s 'gnomes of Zurich' comment? He does seem to spend most of his time reading.
Tell us, if only fotr Tankie's sake as he doesn't seem to know either. And thanks again.
My grandson showed me an episode of South Park. In it a sooner called Kanye West, a self proclaimed genius, didn't understand a simple fish sticks joke.
I'm his efforts to try and understand it, because he is a genius and must understand it, he made himself look like more of an idiot.
I think you should watch that particular episode.
Nice to hear about the family, Malcolm, but surely quicker for all of us if you simply explained the joke.
You are literally the only one who doesn't get it. My Steven in Gerrard man, please have some perspective.
It's a crap pun, it doesn't work, let's move on. I used to live in what our frenzied friend hilariously (or not) calls the 'gnome counties'. We lived in a crappy, mould covered flat in my youth. As an adult I lived in a two up, two down as our first house where the local kids constantly vandalized the back of peoples gardens. But then they were 'army kids' and as a group they're a massive pain in the arse.
If you look under a few rocks, you find massive divergence of rich and poor, including some of the poorest people I have ever seen (farm labourers near Guildford) and I now live near the place count Thatchula described as the 'most deprived' in Britain.
As such, crap puns about the 'wealthy South' just piss me off. But then sweeping generalisations are our Spart friends stock in trade.
I don't get the joke either. Triple B is not alone.
Tell you what's funny - Gnome Counties Gammons taking themselves seriously. Royalist flag waving 'n' all.
Quislings have no senser yuma. Never have had, never will. Hence Starmer and Reeves. "Good" at genocide, warmongering, mass murder, lying and hypocrisy though. And, of course, literally grovelling at Trump's feet.
Have a "nice" day with the Downing Street, Whitehall and "the City" regime. Loadsa "fun" there, me ol' Micawbers.
Oh how we larfed.
There you are, Tankie, not everyone is in bed with an embers-filled bed warming pan by 10 o'clock. Even the saintly Ed is still up at 04.46 of a Saturday night/Sunday morning, possibly at one of his favoured picnics.
Though if the second sentence of his post is anything to go by, he should avoid eating the mushrooms at his next year's solstice hootenanny.
I'd just finished a 12 hour shift in the ambulance Bertie, my anger got the best of me and I do apologise.
I don't usually take Gerrard's name in vain like that. What a player he was.
15:23.
Tough luck me ol' Micawber1.
The Gnome Counties missile got right through the Quisling Paper Dome.
More tremendous scenes of Micawber1 leaking water pistols onto Hush Puppies.
Oh my aching sides.
Never mind that lads!
While me ol' Micawber1 and assorted alter egos try to resolve the great conundrum of "the Gnome Counties".....
The overtly fascist Del Boy regime in Downing Street, Whitehall and "the City" seek enough "emotional space" to start World War 3. All while mass murdering innocent Palestinians and inflicting even more poverty on Britain's most vulnerable citizens.
Still, no income tax, no VAT......
I'm a trusting kind of person, Ed, (I hope not too trusting) but if your 17.59 post above is true then I retract every negative thing I've ever sent your way as my utter respect and admiration for what you do outweighs and cancels any reservations I have about your occasional apparent tendency to choose Tankie's binary simplicities as a hill to die on or an excuse for sniping at me. Impersonal posts are a crude communication medium and I'm sure we have much more in common than we have that divides us.
(If your post was not true, however, then you're obviously a complete bastard).
@15.33 Are you okay? No, I really mean it. Such pointless, aimless, comment are clearly signs of - a) sunstroke. It has been pretty not lately, all getting too much for you? B) persecution complex? Trouble is, as with your counterparts on the right, people simply not agreeing with you is not 'persecution'. C) Alchol abuse. Not at all funny this. If the old vodka (communist era only) is messing with your head - time to stop old son. Best wishes with the recovery.
Bertie, I think what I think, none of what I have ever written is an excuse to snipe at you. Now, I must admit I can be cranky after a shift, I can be cranky in general, and I'm not a professional writer like your enemy Mr Hayhurst, but none of what I do is motivated with you in my mind.
