I'm out of luck for anything since BA will claim strike, right? Flight was tomorrow, notified about 30 hours before. Oneworld Sapphire, if that entitles me to anything but based on previous experiences with BA seems unlikely.
I believe the Duty of Care would still apply here. So, BA would have to put you up in a hotel for the night in Paris. No compensation though, and you'd need to rely on insurance for the London hotel.
