You'll probably see it crop up a lot on news satire shows in the near future, but the presenter on Open Source (BBC News channel) has just made a classic Freudian Slip:

 

While discussing Twitter responses to Johnson becoming PM, she was explaining how the hashtag #NotMyPM has taken off (along with #Britain Trump), and tried to say "...more than 50,000 tweets carrying that tag.", but initially confused the word "tag" with another word beginning with "t"...
