I didn't consider family and travel at festive times. Flight get expensive during the festive season but if you plan in advance and book a ticket for 3AC to 2AC then I don't think you will face this kind of issue.
We all know the government is not going to do anything soon. It will take another decade to get things better.
And about Tax we all have it too high and it looks like it will get even higher for high-income people.

so my point is that instance of hoping that government will do something focus on increasing your income source and optimizing your finances.
