Not in UK as GDPR is an EU regulation.
Still applicable in the UK. It was adopted prior to brexit.
Wasn't the point of Brexit to get rid of those pesky EU regulations?
No the point was politicians using xenophobia to get support for themselves, and they accidentally went too far and managed to leave the EU while doing it.
That was one of the 'publicly perceived' points of Brexit and GDPR was either deemed useful enough to keep or, like most things, would take too much effort for the powers that be to get rid of.
