The Liberal Democrats brought their annual conference to a close last night with a rousing rendition of a sweary song about Brexit. The party faithful sang along to 'F*** the Tories' as they wound up their four-day gathering in Brighton.

The song, which has been a staple of Lib Dem conferences for years, was led by party leader Ed Davey. The crowd waved their hands in the air and sang along lustily, with many of them filming the performance on their phones.

The song's lyrics include the lines: "We're the Lib Dems, we're here to stay, we're gonna fight for a People's Vote, and we're gonna win." The song also includes a number of expletives, which were bleeped out by the BBC when it broadcast footage of the performance.

One person tweeted: "Well done to the Lib Dems for standing up for what they believe in. The Tories have made a mess of Brexit and they need to be held to account." Another person tweeted: "I'm a Lib Dem supporter but I don't think it's appropriate for the party to be using such bad language. It's not a good look."

The Lib Dems have defended their use of the song

The Lib Dems have defended their use of the song, saying that it is a reflection of the anger and frustration that many people feel about Brexit.

A party spokesperson said: "The song is a way for our members to express their feelings about the government's handling of Brexit. We are a passionate party and we are not afraid to stand up for what we believe in."
