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.^[1]

MovX was launched in July 2014 by four senators who had left (or had been expelled from) the Five Star Movement (M5S),^[2]^[3] 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, ^[4]^[5]^[6] while Maurizio Romani left to join Italy of Values.^[7]^[8] The only two senators left to MovX were thus Laura Bignami and Maria Mussini, who left in September.
