It apears from askBA that only BA Golds and those in eliglble cabins may do so:

There has been no need to argue for several years now, BA staff are well versed with the QF privileges and there is even a sign at the LHR T4 arrivals lounge desk covering the QF CL/WP access rights! And it is often broadly interpreted to include non-JSA flights if you say you originated in Australia and came via US for example. But this is only at LHR.

Yes - see AskBA

Unfortunately the Lounge Staff still don't know this either, so an argument is required each time (today included) before you can get in.

I've found an online version but this seems to be an old version and has no mention of Premier.
