It's BA you would approach for this, but you may struggle on this one, at least inside BA. Usually BA takes the view that if you fall below MCT on a tight connection then it's the airport they blame for not getting you through the system fast enough. You only had about 20 minutes leeway on this, and you went a bit over this. I can see BA not paying this one. It's worth trying since it's possible CEDR will see this as more BA's actions / more that BA could do to assure the flight. Hopefully you have been given hotels and food arrangements.
