At the 1830 UK general election, John was elected in Mitchell, but unlike his uncle, he was a Whig, and supported the Great Reform Act. Hawkins lost the Mitchell seat at the 1831 UK general election, but government ministers were keen to retain him, and he won Tavistock a few weeks later. He supported the Reform Act 1832, although he opposed the enfranchisement of tenants who paid at least £50 in annual rent. At the 1832 UK general election, he switched to contest Newport (Isle of Wight). He held the seat until 1841, when he stood down. (en)
