Hell I find myself agreeing with you Tealeaf, to be quite honest I don't think the people who are charged with making these decisions fail to take into account local traditions what so ever, Blackburn is Blackburn and Rossendale is Rossendale, I know we are near neighbours but our outlooks are totally different. Besides that we will still be under the same Hyndburn flag at local level, is it any wonder that the rank and file of local people haven't got a clue whats happening with politics, there is always some boffin state in a London office trying to muddy the waters
