"Anarchy does not rule"

From the front page of the Daily Express:


What? Say again! ANARCHY DOES NOT RULE UK.

Let me check.... Wikipedia says:

Anarchy (from Greek: ἀναρχία anarchía, "without ruler"):

  • "No rulership or enforced authority."
Therefore, the phrase above is stupid. By DEFINITION, anarchy is the state of not ruling. The phrase is as stupid as saying "the colour of a red apple is red".

Well, this is deep waters for a STUPID tabloid like Daily Express. In fact, any UK newspaper that has the word "Daily" in its title is less useful than wrapping paper.
