Secession is not for next year, but otherwise this is false. The right wing of the pro-independence movement is what won the biggest chunk of seats (losing almost a fifth of its previous total), but the pro- independence movement as a whole won a decisive majority of seats in an election with an exceedingly high (68%) rate of participation.
