LIBERAL Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey vowed to finish off the Tories in his keynote speech to his party conference in Brighton today.

The Tories remained “totally unfit to govern our country,” he said, dismissing the remaining Conservative leadership contenders as “out of touch with so many of their former voters.”
