Popular streamer iShowSpeed accidentally started a standing ovation for Lionel Messi while trying to snub him. On Monday (30 October), the Inter Miami CF star won the Ballon d'Or, the biggest individual football award there is, for the eighth time. As David Beckham was about to announce the winner, Speed (real name Darren Jason Watkins Jr) could be heard whispering "Ronaldo, Ronaldo" in hopes his sporting idol Cristiano Ronaldo would bag the award. Speed looked distraught when Messi's name was revealed, prompting him to stand up in shock. Footage was soon shared to X/Twitter, where many people joked: "He is the one that made everyone stand up". Another wrote: "Everyone standing up with him really helped LOL". Some people were not impressed by Speed's reaction, writing: "I don’t understand why this clown is famous." Another questioned "how and why he was invited." Meanwhile, a third chimed in: "Ronaldo... Ronaldo... Who wasn't even shortlisted.." Upon accepting the award, Messi said he "couldn't imagine having the career that I've had. Everything that I've achieved." "The fortune I've had playing for the best team in the world, the best team in history. It's nice to win these individual trophies," he continued. "To win the Copa America and then the World Cup, to get it done is amazing. All of them [Ballon d'Or awards] are special for different reasons." Beckham went on to promise Messi a party following his record-breaking win. "It's very special to say he's a Miami player and he's in our city," Beckham said. "He'll celebrate this with his teammates and his family in his way. "We'll do our best to celebrate it in the Miami way. I'm sure we can do a good party."

Saul “Canelo” Alvarez returns to the ring this weekend, defending his undisputed super-middleweight titles against another undisputed champion: Jermell Charlo. Canelo was expected to face Charlo’s twin brother – Jermall, who holds the WBC middleweight belt – but will instead box the super-welterweight champion in Las Vegas. The 33-year-olds will square off at the T-Mobile Arena, where Canelo retained his belts in a trilogy bout against Gennady Golovkin 12 months ago. The Mexican then returned to his home country in May, securing another decision win as he beat John Ryder. Meanwhile, Charlo’s last fight was in May 2022, a week after Canelo was outpointed by Dmitry Bivol in a light-heavyweight title fight. American Charlo stopped Brian Castano in Round 10 to improve upon his draw with the Argentine from 2021. Here’s all you need to know about Canelo vs Charlo.

The person behind the popular Twitter parody account The Secret Tory has finally been revealed and it’s not who you might expect. The Secret Tory Twitter account was started in April 2019 and has since gathered a following of almost 200,000 people by tweeting about the dire state of the government, even releasing a book last year. Followers of the satirical account include people such as Gary Lineker, Gary Neville, James O’Brien and Dermot O’Leary. The account has purported to be run by an “anonymous Conservative MP”, though, over the years, guesses from Twitter users have ranged from people in politics to high-profile comedians. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Now, the identity of the person behind the account has been revealed as Henry Morris – a personal trainer from Yorkshire. Who is Henry Morris? In a bizarre clip posted on Twitter, Morris revealed his true identity saying he is the man who has been “amateurishly lampooning [the Conservative’s] proto-fascist antics”. Speaking to the BBC, Morris explained how it all started, saying: “I inadvertently started parodying Mark Francois at the height of Brexit when I was bored between training clients in my gym.” Morris continued: “It took on a life of its own almost immediately, I remember people in the gym laughing about the account without knowing it was me, and it was very nice to have my hunch confirmed that I could make people laugh.” The account began life named Mark ne-Francois-pas, mocking the name of the Conservative MP Mark Francois. Other iterations saw it named Michael Govern Ready before becoming The Secret Tory. It seems some were rather disappointed by the news that he is not actually a real politician. One person replied to revelation: "Moral of the story, never trust a Tory real or fake." Another said: "What a crock of s**te." "To be fair - @secrettory12 does look like an MP. Just one from a suburb of a major Australian city…" another person suggested. Morris, who now lives in Wales, made a small apology to those who truly thought it was an anonymous MP mocking their own party. He said: “If people are feeling cheated I'm not a real MP, I'd like to say I'm sorry. But I'm not. It's got a lot more to do with the behaviour of the people sitting in Westminster, than my skills as a con artist.” Have your say in our news democracy.
