Nadia stormed out of the house meeting and slammed the door. “I cannot believe that Laszlo!” she said, baring her vampire teeth. “I come in with some fantastic ideas about running the vampire theme park we’re building in England, and he just huffed and said he was leaving it all to some piece of fruit!” She transformed into a bat and flew out of the window. “I need some space away from my husband!” she shouted as she left. Colin Robinson opened the door, left the room, and sh

Fleabag looked at her sister’s terrible haircut and looked back at the camera. “Hair is everything,” she said. Claire sniffled on the park bench. “Come on,” Fleabag said. “We’re going to see Anthony…” **** In the salon, Anthony looked at the picture in Claire’s hand. “So this is what you brought me and this is what I gave you…isn’t it?” he said. “Yes, Anthony,” Claire and Fleabag said together.

One of the biggest changes brought in by the General Data Protection Regulation was the increase in fines for data breaches. Since its implementation in 2018, the maximum fine has risen from £500,000 under the Data Protection Act 1998 to 20 million euros or 4% of worldwide annual turnover, whichever is the highest. In the past three years, the UK regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office, has imposed several large financial penalties for businesses which have breached
