The choice for a replacement for FPTP depends on your particular issue with it, in my opinion. One issue is its encouragement of strategic voting, the other is in disproportionate seat/vote ratios. I am much more concerned with strategic voting than with disproportionate seat counts, so I am personally more interested in a ranked ballot rather than a PR system. I want to be able to vote for the Greens, but I don't want minority governments in perpetuity.

Problem with the ranked ballot is that it would hurt both parties, so it'll never be proposed.
