Same here in Ireland. We've had these "Big 4" guys as enforcers on various public projects and funny how they always seem to be on the inside whenever things pay off. I shudder whenever I hear them mentioned. Also, in Ireland we typically refer to our country as such though perhaps it should be formally referred to as "The Republic of Ireland" to avoid confusion with "The North". That said it does actually say "Ireland" on the constitution. While I'm at it, in Irish language: "Eireann" is the Island itself; "Eire" is the nation (the spirit of Ireland if you like), and constitutionally the latter isn't bounded by political borders. "Sasana" (sawsunna) is England and to describe something as English is "Sasanach". "Amach" (Ahmock) is out. Run the two together and you've got "Sasamach" which is Irish for Brexit. Funnily enough it also corresponds to an old Republican mantra "Brits Out" which was used to refer to their presence on the north. Funny the turn that history can take.
