About Alicia, Hopkins said, "If she was smarter I'd leave her alone".
The goading of Nadia and Perez, where they said nothing, in the bedroom would be another example of bullying, in my view. The isolation and Katie's encouragement of others (Nadia and Alicia) to isolate Perez is typical of a bully in my opinion. She gets away because Nadia and Perez were deemed "acceptable" targets for whatever reason. Oh and apparently she's "witty". |

Does it revert back to just as bad as each other though. If you are not happy with someone you think is a bully...to me doesn't make it acceptable for you to do the same.
Does it require will power to walk away when someone is kicking off? Absolutely but it can be done. She doesn't give Perez the chance to walk away though...how many times has she followed him around the house digging away at him. As I said, I think Katie H wanted to give Perez a run for his money - give him a little bit of his own medicine. Perez encouraged it. He wanted Katie to react. Just like he encouraged the 'horror' at the Jeremy situation and the 'Ken' situation and wanted to get a reaction from Alex. I sometimes wish Katie wouldn't react to Perez - because that is pretty much what he is aiming for. |

I think with this situation Katie most probably taking the approach 'what's good for the goose is good for the gander'. She most probably believed in giving people a taste of their own medicine. Whether she took it too far eventually? As in it became tired. Maybe. But it wasn't bullying because of the context. Perez encourage it and gave it out just as much.

I'm behind the times re the forum so forgive me if I cover old ground but didn't Perez start this war of words with Katie Hopkins, he told everyone that didn't know her that she was the most hated person in Britain etc and then didn't he attack her first (quite aggressively) about her affair?
Didn't he then go on to pretty much alienate himself from everyone else with his constant childish attention seeking behaviour and using the rule book get people in to trouble with BB? With that in mind isn't the best thing to do with a trouble making child ignore them and isn't that what she was saying to do? I think if she'd stuck at making attacks on Perez that would have been fair enough, he deserved it, and lets face it they both enjoy it, but she didn't. She had to win and the only thing she could come up with was to demand his isolation (while following him around herself). IMO that is not the behaviour of a mature woman, it's straight out of the manual of playground bullying. Strangely these two have done each other a favour...Perez has made her look better than she is, and she has made him look better than he is. And now we are left with two unpleasant people each getting 'the sympathy vote'. Whichever one wins will win because the other is disliked more. I'd rather someone like Keith won but I fear the days of the good guy, who's kept his head in all this madness, winning are over.

The Alicia thing was bordering on bullying. I almost agree. However, her opinion that Alicia seemed a little - lets say 'naive' was probably justified somewhat. And mostly she chatted to Alicia about it all - maybe pulling a few grimaces in the process. But Hopkins didn't go all out of her way to make fun of her. I think sometimes she was genuinely bamboozled by her lack of knowledge on certain things or her priorities with regards to her own body and perhaps working on some of these 'knowledge' issues.
Hopkins chose to say thick - on a number of occasions. There is no point in dressing it up. Hopkins was cruel and spiteful and poked fun at her lack of knowledge behind her back even though she 'always says it to your face'. |

I sometimes wish Katie wouldn't react to Perez - because that is pretty much what he is aiming for. Its nothing to do with reaction or 'giving people a run for their money'....its very similar to her behaviour with Perez - only difference Katie P and Keith have done nothing wrong. Perhaps one might concude that this whole isolating/ostracizing/encouraging others to ostracize/mocking them behind their backs is far more an indication of Katies mean spirited and cruel nature than Perezs annoying characteristics. |

She didn't debate it. She called him a grumpy old bastard and immediately fled the room. This is what she does...attack and retreat. The same with all her rather unpleasant tweets, all done safely from a distance. Now if I saw her have a face to face debate with the Palestinians, the Muslims or ebola victims I might find some respect for her. to escape The Perez Show, but she builds safety in numbers, aided by henchwomen like Michelle. Isolating him is all part of that. A tactic now used against Pricey and Keith.

The raising of eyebrows, and grimaces are all part of Katie's make up. I don't have a problem with that unless she didn't speak her opinion alongside. |

If its all about a reaction to Perez, why is she now encouraging her gang to leave the room that Katie P and Keith are in, badmouthing them behind their backs and sharing her 'game' plans with them? (the game is to leave the room whenever they are in it and she clearly wants her group to do the same).
Its nothing to do with reaction or 'giving people a run for their money'....its very similar to her behaviour with Perez - only difference Katie P and Keith have done nothing wrong.

They did. Paranoia was rife. They really did believe Perez's pronouncements that he called all the shots. That he would break them one by one. Katie herself didn't isolate him, she took him on - full on wrecking ball stylee.
Just my opinion ![]() Perez is playing the irritant, attention seeking and trying to get a reaction, KH responding gives him what he wants. Ideally I'd like them both to go too far and both be evicted. |

Nah. I really don't see this. She makes cutting remarks but is happy to defend those remarks. Openly.

sigh, I understand everyone's opinion that it is out and out bullying, but given the circumstances and his refusal to act in any other way, I would treat him in the exact same way..........
In the outside world KH is rightly taken to task, Inside this house Without a safe escape from the maniac Perez, you have to do what you must... defending in numbers and refusing him the opportunity to stir the pot (as muc as you can) prevents him repeating his rule book party tricks. it's too bad that it is generally the perpetrators of actions that require defence from the natural conséquences. He cries foul for thingshe does himself! |

Naivety and stupidity are two very different things. Alicia demonstrated on several occasions she arguably posses a lot more emotional intelligence than Hopkins, for example. |

There has been vid on here of KH deliberately leaving rooms if they are in them and summonsing her crew to do the same. Then she celebrates with a little dance in the bedroom over leaving behind 'the bores'. Pricey clocked it and discussed it with Keith. Michelle complained to KH that she didn't want to be part of it, but KH was enjoying it.

Then she could have used the word naive, but she decided to go with the nastier and more hurtful option to score points.

I think many people probably have a higher emotional intelligence than Hopkins! Generalisation there - but just an opinion and no I am not bullying Hopkins

It amazes me people refuse to see this. It's interpersonal Divide & Conquer, effectively.
But I do not believe that she does it. I think she voices her opinion - either hangs around for the debate - or walks off after moaning about something. That's about it. She will talk about it if people want to talk about it. |
