Stop blaming brexit for every thing you perceive to be going wrong.

The shrinkage has been going on as far back as the 90s. Take a look at this article from back in 2015:

Tidgy, we are not talking about everything.....this thread is about Toblerone....and the change with that stems from Brexit, bizarrely enough. Now I am sure that most people would not be able to comprehend that but it is the truth of the matter.

If you want to go back to the old sizes and weights simply get tweeting the confectionary makers telling them to go back and you will be happy to pay more.
