The viable alternative is to keep a M.P. for Hyndburn, or at least fight to keep one.
Let other areas get split up, and tagged on to neighbouring constituencies.
I don't personally care what happens elsewhere.
I do care if we are deemed not important enough an area to warrant our own M.P.
Our historical and unique identity will be harmed, as well as the power and political leverage having a M.P. who covers the same area as the borough council, affords us.
