But couldn’t that be got around with a vpn or Tor?

Yes, but in that scenario the end user is circumventing the policy, no fine for the tech company.

Of course, but good luck explaining this to the UK lawmakers.
From the company perspectives, they need to comply with the law. The law will probably be along the lines of what I said earlier.
I guess nobody in the UK lawmakers have the slightest idea on how to implement it.
