With UK’s new security bill that seems to more dismantle security rather than help. Am I still legally okay to use signal, VPN, tutanota, https, tor?

I’m not based in the UK, so I can’t speak to your specific legal risk, so always do what’s best for your safety.
But if able, I would encourage you to continue to use your VPN until you can no longer do so. Support end to an encryption wherever you can, there’s a huge difference between the law as written, and the law as enforced. Normalize encryption as much as you can.
If encryption is illegal locally, probably won’t be able to pay for VPNs using standard payment methods in the future, so start using a VPN that supports anonymous payments now. Like Mullvad, airvpn etc.
Privacy is a human right
