Brexit made my biscuits shrink

What can be more British than biscuits?
Both crunchy and crumbly the same
All loved for their taste and none left to waste
Whatever the label or name.

Politely paired up in the saucer
Awaiting a dunk in my drink
Now Brexit has bitten and stolen a dozen
By causing the packets to shrink.

I don’t know who voted for Brexit
I do know they don’t speak for me
Leaving biscuits behind was really not kind
I’m a Brit without biscuits with tea.
