British Psychic Craig Hamilton-Parker Issues Dire 2026 Predictions: Global Conflict, Cyber Disruption
Craig Hamilton-Parker, a British psychic medium frequently labeled the "Prophet of Doom" and sometimes called the "New Nostradamus," has cultivated a substantial global audience through YouTube and social media platforms. He consistently shares a stream of geopolitical and disaster forecasts that captivate followers worldwide. His predictions span a wide array of alarming scenarios, including pandemics, political upheavals, coups, assassinations, and environmental catastrophes. In recent weeks, Hamilton-Parker has detailed a series of specific warnings for the year 2026, which he describes as a potentially tumultuous period shaped by escalating global conflicts, significant cyber disruptions, and shifting international alliances.
The Predictions That Built His Reputation
Hamilton-Parker's public profile and credibility largely rest on a cluster of high-profile political and global events he claims to have anticipated accurately. Supporters often point to these instances as evidence of his predictive abilities, while critics argue that many of his forecasts are broad, conditional, or made within politically charged contexts that allow for flexible interpretation.
Coronavirus Pandemic: Hamilton-Parker has stated that he foresaw a major global pandemic as early as 2017. In videos posted around 2017–2018, he predicted that such an event could emerge toward the end of 2017 or the beginning of 2018. He clarified that it would not be as catastrophic as historic pandemics like the "Big Pig Flus" that killed thousands after the First World War, but he expected warnings and public concern. He even suggested the possibility of biological subterfuge, potentially linked to bioterrorism. While COVID-19, which began in late 2019 and swept the globe in 2020, was not officially classified as an act of bioterrorism, it caused unprecedented disruption. The World Health Organization reports that the global death toll stands at just over seven million. Supporters cite his pre-2020 commentary as evidence that he anticipated a large-scale health crisis before it became mainstream knowledge.
Brexit and the Rise of Boris Johnson: Hamilton-Parker also claims to have predicted the UK's decision to leave the European Union in the 2016 referendum. According to archived videos and a 2017 HuffPost report, he additionally suggested that Boris Johnson would rise to the role of Prime Minister in the aftermath of Brexit, which he eventually did in 2019. He previously stated that a hard Brexit would lead to the UK "thriving," a claim that remains politically debated, particularly as the current government under Keir Starmer has signaled closer alignment with European partners.
Russia's Move Against Ukraine: In November 2021, Hamilton-Parker said Britain would be drawn into a new conflict after Russia "takes some moves against Ukraine." Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. It is worth noting that Russia had been massing troops near Ukraine's border for months prior, and Western intelligence agencies had publicly warned of a potential invasion, adding context to this prediction.
Queen Elizabeth II's Death: In October 2021, Hamilton-Parker stated that Queen Elizabeth II would "make it past her Platinum Jubilee" before experiencing a "sudden and quick" deterioration leading to her death in late 2022. The Queen died on 8 September 2022 at the age of 96, shortly after the Platinum Jubilee celebrations earlier that year.
The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump: In July 2024, Hamilton-Parker told astrologer Joni Patry that Donald Trump would face a threat against his life during the 2024 election campaign, saying: "That will fail but he might get wounded or something." Days later, at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, 20-year-old Thomas Crooks attempted to shoot Trump. The attempt failed, though Trump sustained an ear injury. These instances form the foundation of Hamilton-Parker's credibility among his followers and frame the weight many attach to his new forecasts for 2026.
The 2026 Forecast: A Year of Escalation?
Hamilton-Parker describes 2026 as a period of overlapping crises that could test democratic institutions worldwide. He suggests that geopolitical tensions, cyber disruption, and environmental catastrophe might converge in unprecedented ways. He frequently references spiritual readings and ancient Indian Nadi texts, which are palm-leaf manuscripts traditionally used in Tamil Nadu. These texts purport to contain life predictions based on thumb impressions and karmic history. According to Hamilton-Parker, these readings indicate a significant reordering of global alliances in the near future.
A Third Term for Donald Trump? One of his most controversial 2026 forecasts concerns the United States presidency. Responding to a viewer's question about whether Donald Trump could pursue a third or even fourth term, Hamilton-Parker reiterated an earlier prediction: "To reiterate what I said at the time, I felt there would be some big global conflict, possibly involving Taiwan," he said. "Looking at it now, it could be any global conflict. I know a lot of people have criticised this, saying you cannot have a third term because it is written in the Constitution, but who knows? Things have changed so much in the world." He suggests that emergency measures could be triggered during a period of global instability, potentially disrupting conventional electoral procedures: "Something will occur that overturns the existing rules, and that period will be a time of great conflict." He also revisits a prediction he says he made in 2015, that China and Russia would align against the United States: "At the time, it seemed impossible because they were certainly not friendly. Yet I saw them joining together in conflict with the USA. So could that be what I'm seeing now? Or could it involve Iran instead? My feeling is that around that period, we will see many conflicts emerging in 2026."
A Gas Cloud Over Japan: Hamilton-Parker has repeatedly warned of a catastrophic gas cloud event in Japan in August 2026, first mentioned in his 2015 book Messages from the Universe. "In one of my Nadi readings, it suggested that I would warn the world about a country being completely enveloped in a gas cloud," he said. "More recently, further information has emerged confirming Japan as the likely location, with an approximate timing of August 2026. We even have an approximate location in the north of the country." He has emphasised that the future is not fixed: "The Nadi teachings stress that the future can be changed. Part of the reason I'm sharing this is to encourage people to send positive thoughts, prayers, and visualisations to help reduce the impact." He has speculated about possible causes, including volcanic activity or even deliberate escalation: "Could something like a bomb be used to intensify a gas cloud or volcanic activity? That would suggest a clandestine form of attack." Alongside this, he warns of a major cyber event: "In 2026, there could be a major cyber event causing financial disruption, affecting cryptocurrencies, industry, and even the AI market. Gold may rise and then fall. We need to be cautious." He advised practical precautions: "Make sure you back everything up and don't rely solely on cloud storage. This could be bigger than anything we've seen before."
Iran: Targeted Strikes and Rapid Escalation: Hamilton-Parker has long forecast military action involving Iran. Having previously predicted attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, which he believes have since occurred, he now anticipates a second wave in March 2026. "I believe this will happen in March 2026," he said. "We will see very targeted attacks, not just on the leadership, but also on the remaining nuclear facilities, because they cannot be left intact." He envisages a swift and limited operation: "It will escalate quickly, then stop. A sudden hit followed by withdrawal, leaving the outcome to the Iranian people. I do not sense boots on the ground, rather, airstrikes and swift action." He acknowledges uncertainty over outcomes: "Revolutions do not always lead to the outcomes people hope for; sometimes worse regimes take control. I'm not saying that will happen here, but it is a risk." He also references symbolic imagery from earlier readings, "yellow and red flags" and "a lion soaring above Iran," which he believes correspond to unfolding events.
Greenland, Chagos and Resource Politics: On Greenland, Hamilton-Parker frames the issue primarily in economic terms. "My first reaction was that this has little to do with the military, even though Greenland is strategically important," he said. "It's really about real estate, oil reserves and, most importantly, rare earth metals." He predicts economic pressure rather than invasion: "This appears more like pressure and posturing that will culminate in a major economic arrangement. A deal will be struck, potentially involving very large payments connected to Greenland's resources." On the Chagos Islands dispute, he was blunt: "Chagos, I agree. It was a crazy deal, and most people in the UK see it as madness to give away these islands. I don't think the deal will proceed, Starmer's manoeuvre is a repeat of past reckless politics, and it will backfire."
NATO, China and a 2030 Turning Point
Looking beyond 2026, Hamilton-Parker suggests that NATO may fragment or evolve, eventually giving rise to a new peacekeeping body around 2030. "No single country wants the burden of policing the world," he said. "The UN has always been toothless, intervening late. I feel a new organization will emerge, possibly from changes in NATO, the UN, and Trump's initiatives, to maintain peace through conflict management." He also expressed skepticism about Trump's initiative, the so-called 'Peace Board,' and suggested he does not see it as the replacement for the UN that he envisions.
China features heavily in his outlook. He points to internal political upheaval and economic instability as potential catalysts for global disruption, including increased tensions around Taiwan. "Economic problems in China could trigger political unrest, which will dominate global attention in 2026," he said. He has also criticised UK engagement with China, arguing that infrastructure and technology partnerships carry significant risk. Hamilton-Parker's forecasts for 2026 converge around a theme of overlapping crises that could reshape alliances and test institutions worldwide. In his video predictions, he indicated that 2030 will be a critical year when the world may begin seeking peace and addressing major global challenges in a more concerted manner.
