Slip of the tongue?

I've just been reading a thread on the Warwick University enrolment forum (link not provided because I do not know what the rules are for outsiders viewing the forums) about Gordon Brown's speech at the Labour party conference. Apparently, he said "There are still many valuable purses worth fighting for". He meant to say "purposes" but it was a slip of the tongue - or was it? After all, he does like the idea of getting his hands on more and more of our money. Was this slip of the tongue deliberate or accidental? Answers in the comments section please.

Definitely a freudian slip. Gordon would skin his granny for the cash, and we know that he is not above stealing from all our purses.
