Decrease in the Weight of the Toblerone Bar

  • Submitted by: Colin Beattie, Midlothian North and Musselburgh, Scottish National Party
  • Date lodged: Wednesday, 16 November 2016
  • Motion type: Standard Motion
  • Motion reference: S5M-02538

That the Parliament notes with concern Mondelez International's recent decision to widen the gaps between the segments of the iconic Swiss chocolate bar, Toblerone, in the UK; understands that this was made in order to allay rising costs for numerous ingredients; believes that this is emblematic of the devastating consequences that Brexit could bring; offers its condolences to those mourning this change to the bar; calls on the UK Government to take speedy action to rectify the change, but wishes the company the best possible success with the lighter bar.
