From the start:

"Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is a high-precision atomic time
standard which replaced Greenwich Mean Time on 1 January, 1972..."

So, officially GMT is no more, and UTC is king. Of course, Greenwich,
England still has a time zone, and it is the same as UTC - at least
until they start observing daylight savings time.
