Claim 2: “Residents say... flood control measures they say were paid for, seemingly do not work.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim is explicitly stated in the Al Jazeera reports found in the web search results. However, the other provided evidence (CDC data, Wikipedia entries on Filipinos in the UK, and general Philippines geography) is completely irrelevant to the specific claim about flood control measures. Since only the Al Jazeera source reports this specific grievance, it remains a single-source claim.
