British citizens are mostly worried about such issues as immigration control (38 percent), healthcare (34 percent), poverty and social inequality (30 percent), rise of extremism (25 percent) and terrorism (24 percent), according to the poll.
Less than 40 percent of UK citizens consider Britain is moving in the right direction, with many concerned about healthcare and migrants’ issue, a new Ispos MORI poll revealed on Monday. "The decline in opinion for the future direction of Britain continued in November: now just 37% of people think we’re on the right track compared with 44% in September," the monthly "What Worries the World" poll said.

The poll revealed that the British citizens are mostly worried about such issues as immigration control (38 percent), healthcare (34 percent), poverty and social inequality (30 percent), rise of extremism (25 percent) and terrorism (24 percent).

Comparing to the data received in October, people in the United Kingdom became much more worried about inflation and maintaining social programs, with those issues showing 6 and 4 percent rise respectively. The survey was conducted on October 21-November 4 among adults aged 16-64 in 25 countries around the world via Ipsos Online Panel system.
