Rape trials.

Actually, this shows up the hard Brexit-style contradiction of the thread title, as the Jackson/Olding trial is in both the UK and Ireland.

The Eurovision Song Contest is another offender in this regard, given that three of our winning entries have been sung by people who are from both the UK and Ireland.
