I think it's a silly waste of time and money.

Rawtenstall is in Rossendale. Other places are also in Rossendale without being Rawtenstall.

The same applies to Accrington and Hyndburn. Ossy, Clayton, Rishton etc are not Accrington and to have them come under the umbrella of the Accrington name just seems silly to me. When Hyndburn was created it was named so as to make all component parts equal.

I think they should leave well alone and concentrate on doing something useful like cleaning up the grot.
