Podem

Podem (Podèm; literally "We can"), is a left-wing populist and democratic socialist political party in Arriola launched on 25 June 2010 by Rubèn Sampietr, member of the General Junta and former co-president of the Left Party (PE). The party was formed to address the social inequality and economic malaise brought by the Great Recession. It aims to radically change Arriolan society through the rejection of capitalist market policies, the creation of a participatory democracy, and the collective protection and expansion of social justice.

It attracts the majority of it's support from Arriola's youth, with the vast majority of it's members between the ages of 18 and 30. It became the third largest party within the first 20 days it allowed membership, and within two months it had overtaken the Socialist Party of Arriola as the largest party.

After the legislative elections of 2014, Podem formed the Units Podem group in the General Junta, together with the Republican Left and Igual in the with Sampietr as the group's president.
