What's the gap, comrades? Critical thinking, please.
More importantly, what can be done to bridge that gap?

" they have two different histories and societies. " - hang on, hang on... I wasn't trying to identify them - I was trying to compare them, which is EXACTLY what you just did. What are the significant differences between Britain and Greece, such that they have stuff like this and we have Tesco invasions?
Don't you agree the greek situation is one we should be seeking to move towards?
still waiting...

1 If u knew anything about the Greek riot police or police in general u wouldnt be speaking. Every time theres a protes theyre out looking for excuses to kick ass. whether it be pentioners, pregnant women or children in the protest they dont care. They are trained murderers. Police in Greece beat up illegal immigrants who have been detained on a daily basis and have been responsible for the deaths of many people in custody and then go on to cover it up by saying the cause of death was pneumonia or something. At least the anarchists in greece (which i could find 1million things to fault them at but not this) are showing the police that if they think they can do things like that and have no consequences to pay for they are wrong. Go back to July when that Brazillian was shot in the UK. Do u think Ian Blair and his thugs should get away with this crime unpunished? Obviously jail is the right place for them but taking up ressistance to these terrorists be that by burning their headquarters to the ground or just confronting them on the streets like anarchists do in Greece would show them that there is ressistance to their methods.
If u dont know dont talk
it could happen here....

It doesnt need thousands of people on the street, just a few dozen committed people. But we are all too scared to stick our necks out to make it happen - and too intimidated by special branch tactics of informants and infiltrators.
We have the people, we just dont have the organisation. Suggestions on a postcard please...
