This sort of thing has happened before, the Stansted lounge went out of bounds for a few weeks while contracts were reworded, and vouchers given out instead. Broadly speaking BA generally will provide lounges unless the cost gets silly, they've gone past the stage of being somewhat selective about lounge availability, which happened 3 years ago. My hunch is that this is temporary.
