Polling by Ipsos MORI revealed that Britons were most likely people to think that a major terrorist attack in their country is likely - with two thirds of us thinking the country will be hit by terror.
Elsewhere, two in five (39 per cent) of us think that a USA-North Korea war is likely, while another two in five (43 per cent) think that President Trump will be impeached this year.
Comment: Meanwhile the UK conservative government only just managed to slither into power by making dodgy deals with a highly questionable party based in Northern Ireland, most of the voting public had never even heard of, and since forming the coalition have been plagued by scandals and infighting. But it's Trump whose future looks bleak!
But despite all of these concerns, two thirds of us still say we are optimistic that 2018 will be a better year for us personally.
Comment: What people choose to do is, of course, their own business but their turning to witchcraft has less to do with Trump forcing their hand and more to do with their own fragile emotions, desire for control and inability to cope with disappointment and discomfort.
