Taiwan pop singer Zhang Xuan sparked heated discussions on Chinese social networking sites by bringing onto the stage a Kuomintang Party flag while performing in the UK. The flag came from an audience member.

Zhang took it onto the stage to show where she came from, and talked about equality and mutual respect, when a student from Chinese mainland said, "No politics today".
