The Philippines is sold to the British in the Spanish American war leading to a spanish victory

I think the Spanish selling the Philippines to the british might mean a wet dream to the nationalists who want Northern Borneo.

If the British get the Philippines in the Spanish American war would mean a war of the Philippine revolution/katipunan versus the british which means the British would do everything that the americans did and the Federalista/Unionists who allied with the Americans in OTL will get the upper hand in the politics.

The Islands like the Carolines and Marianas remain as British possessions instead and the Philippines end up as a British associated state with North Borneo and Sarawak like OTL Malaysia..
