I think the Aussie system is flawed because of the party preferences thing - but that's more because the average voter just wants to tick a box for their party and be done with it. I'm not sure that the perfect system would actually be practical. I always vote "below the line" - it's more fun trying to rank all those micro-parties in order of how much I agree with them :) It's still miles better than the UK's system
