X Movement (Movimento X, MovX) is a centre-left populist political party in Italy, which has been active mainly as a sub-group within the Mixed Group of the Senate. Its leader, Maurizio Romani, left the party in July 2015.
The party is inspired by the Spanish Podemos party.
MovX was launched in July 2014 by four senators who had left (or had been expelled from) the Five Star Movement (M5S), a populist party which had come first in the 2013 general election, over disagreements with Beppe Grillo's and Gianroberto Casaleggio's leadership, but did not want to team up with the already-existent Italy Work in Progress.
During 2015 Bartolomeo Pepe left the party in order to join, along with Paola De Pin (another ex-M5S senator formerly affiliated to Italy Work in Progress), the Federation of the Greens, while Maurizio Romani left to join Italy of Values.Maria Mussini left later, leaving Laura Bignami as the party's only senator.
