Same thought: rapid switching now looks the best bet.

And three big differences from the system in the UK: popular (ish) election of the *head of government, the opportunity for the electorate to assess executive performance at a subnational level, and not confusing suitability for party leadership with suitability for executive office.

* And head of state!
