A point here: If Hyndburn wasn't big enough to be a unitary authority a few years ago when blackburn & darwen & blackpool went solo - how can they do it now?

I live in Rossendale and if hyndburn did go solo as in buying their own services where would that leave us? Does that mean Hyndburn would come after us to join them or Burnley as they are joined onto us further down the valley or Manchester as we join onto them all over the place or Rochdale or even Blackburn seeing as we already have a Rossendale & Darwen constituency mind you part of Rossendale is already in the Hyndburn constituency (Haslingden wards Greenfield & Worsley)
