The Metro is a newer UK outlet.
I can only imagine sequels to this article, headlined as "Boris Johnson expresses his pleasure that he and Joe Biden came together, saying 'both of us are relieved'" and "Baltic citizens look forward to arrival of EU seamen."
Perhaps the editors were aware to the double-entendre of the original headline--if so, kudos to them for being clever. Often, though, it seems that headlines are inadvertently clumsy. A quick web search on "humourous headlines" reveals a treasure trove of items, such as:
Man accused of killing lawyer receives a new attorney
Population to double by 2040; babies to blame
Students cook and serve grandparents
Attorney accidentally sues himself
and
Cop makes arrest in bathroom after smelling crack
