Another year has flown by, but what is in store for us in the year to come?

Barry Newman, who claims to be a psychic, clairvoyant and medium, told RadioLIVE on Monday morning what New Zealand can expect in 2019, and how we fit in with the predictions for the rest of the year.

"In New Zealand, we're really guided by what happens overseas. We're just wee pawns in the game," he told host Richard Green.

He predicts the US will undergo a recession. He also thinks that US President Donald Trump will "survive and probably do another four years" and that "the wall won't be built, and that [Mr Trump] is going to retreat a bit".

In terms of how these predictions will affect New Zealand, Mr Newman says "it's going to affect here, but I don't think it's going to be bad".

Asked what was in store for New Zealand, Mr Newman said that Simon Bridges may be on his way out

"The Leader of the Opposition will be gone by August, September. I don't know, but I see a woman leading the National Party, could be [Judith] Collins."

But don't panic - overall Mr Newman predicts a fairly relaxed 2019. 

"I don't think there's going to be anything major here in New Zealand, property prices are going to stabilise. I really feel like it's going to be a good couple of years in New Zealand."
