I believe the answer is:

despotism

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">tyranny</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that tyranny can be written as despotism)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for despotism that I've seen before include "Tyranny" , "Cruel rule" , "Autocracy" , "Do miss pet (anag)" , "Arbitrary government" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Mirror.
