Quite easily done. You can file fares that valid or not valid for sale in a particular market by using ATPCO Fare Category 15.

The UK agents would have been able to issue the same fares as the EU agents had they switched to a different Office ID on their Selling Platform but I doubt I would allow this if I were BA's Director of Sales.
