These are the best jokes after Stan Collymore publicly announced that he was joining the Scottish National Party and leaving Labour after parliament voted by a large majority to carry out air strikes on ISIS targets in Syria.

66 Labour MPs voted in favour of proceeding with the attacks and the TalkSport presenter was so incensed at the final result that he cut his Labour Party membership card in half and immediately joined up with the Scots – all the while providing a running commentary on Twitter.

Here are the best jokes as Stan Collymore joins the Scottish National Party following the Syria vote:

"Sorry I'm late for work, I was going to get off Twitter and go to bed at 11:30 and then Stan Collymore announced he's joined the SNP"
