Podem

Podem (Catalan and Podèm; Ahal Izango Dugu; 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 Aranese society through the rejection of capitalist market policies, the creation of a participatory democracy, and the collective protection and expansion of social justice.

The party opposes Arriola's membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, prospective membership in the European Union, and supports the renegotiation or rejection of several free trade agreements.

Podem is the largest political party in Arriola by number of members, totalling some 620,000 as of 2012. 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 calling of the legislative elections of 2018, Podem formed the En Comú Podem electoral alliance, together with the Republican Left and Igual with Sampietr as the group's president. The party emerged with the largest number of seats in the Junta, taking 202 seats, while it's allies secured a total of 63 seats.
