Disagree. We are further away from revolution than the US and electoral socialism is an impossibility. Greece and Italy are the closest mainland European countries to making something happen and they are the closest because they have had economic disasters that have created the material conditions for a rising and powerful left. They will not get closer unless the conditions tighten further though. Ireland is closest but has moved further away from the opportunity to achieve socialism since conditions improved in the 90s.
