Actually I DON'T want to live in Accrington and District as I live in Great Harwood, not a district of Accrington but part of Hyndburn for the last 33 years and before that was Great Harwood UDC.

I don't hear people from Streatham and Brixton saying "We don't live in Lambeth" or worrying that it isn't a geographical location just a political one.

Leave it, at least this way if people ask about Hyndburn we can say Ossie, Church, Clayton et al rather than folk assume it's Accrington. FFS if I wanted to live in Accrington I'd have moved there.
