Was at the B-gate connection/security check by 06:50am (maybe 06:55am) and was told that BA936 was going to be cancelled (turns out that was a lie) and that I had been moved to BA940 departing 14:20pm.
Different agent at the T5A connections desk eventually revealed that I was offloaded because BA thought I wouldn't make it to the flight and hence made the decision to remove me from the flight, before the 7:05am security cut-off.
Agent also couldn't / wouldn't rebook onto Eurowings to either DUS or CGN this morning (missing interline or "we can but don't want to").

Filed it under cancelled/idb for now, though it shouldn't really matter IMO, since I'll end up in DUS over 6 hours late.
