Musk says he doesn't ‘wanna take responsibility' for all Trump actions
Tech billionaire Elon Musk, whose time as a special government employee came to an end on Friday, said in a Sunday interview that he doesn't want to 'take responsibility' for all actions of the Trump administration. In an interview on CBS News 'Sunday Morning,' Musk said he disagrees with some moves President Trump has made, though he hesitated to discuss them in more detail, saying that might create 'a bone of contention.' 'It's not like I agree with everything the administration does,' Musk said in the interview. 'I mean, I agree with much of what the administration does, but we have differences of opinion. You know, there are things that I don't entirely agree with.' 'But it's difficult for me to bring that up in an interview because then it creates a bone of contention,' Musk continued. 'So then, I'm a little stuck in a bind, where I'm like, 'Well, I don't wanna, you know, speak up against the administration, but I also don't wanna take responsibility for everything this administration's doing,'' he added. Musk made sweeping changes through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) over the last few months. He has said he will continue to advise the president when asked, even though his official role as senior adviser to the president has come to an end. In the interview, Musk stood by the work of DOGE and his efforts to reduce the size of the federal workforce and cut what he deemed wasteful or unnecessary government spending. But he said DOGE 'became the whipping boy for everything,' which Musk described as 'a bit unfair.' 'So if there was some cut, real or imagined, everyone would blame DOGE,' Musk said. 'I've had people think that, like, somehow DOGE is gonna stop them from getting their Social Security check, which is completely untrue.'

Zulu children's choir performs across the West
A South African children's choir has been performing across the west of England as it takes part in a cultural exchange tour. Made up of 20 school children from the Madadeni Township in South Africa, the choir is visiting the UK as part of Project Zulu, an initiative by the University of the West of England (UWE). Raising funds for their schools back home, they have showcased their traditional Zulu song in a number of West Country locations, including a Bristol Bears game and in Bath and Bristol city centres. Project leader, Ben Knight, said their final performance would take place at the Bristol Beacon on 5 June. Project Zulu arranges for choirs from South African townships to tour the UK every two years. Mr Knight said UWE students studying professions such as teaching, engineering and occupational therapy were sent out to the township in South Africa annually to "spend a few weeks making valuable contributions to the educational life of schools in the township". Then every two years a choir, made up of children from two partnership schools, are brought over to Bristol to spend three weeks performing and sharing their talent and culture. "They've been busking, they've put on concerts," he said. Mr Knight explained the tour aimed to raise money for the two schools involved. "They are over here sharing their extraordinary talents and culture but also earning money to develop their educational opportunities back home," he said. He said this year, one school planned to use the money to develop solar energy and the other hoped to buy IT equipment. "Every penny that is made goes directly back to their schools," he said. "A little bit of your money goes a really long way in South Africa," he added. Mr Knight said "right at the heart of the project" was a "desire to bring people who live a long way apart, and lead very different lives, together". Follow BBC Bristol on Facebook, X and Instagram.
