FWS, ignore Olympic, he is speaking utter drivel!
BA employ pilots, both male and female, from many countries worldwide. The basic requirements for employment are on the company website above (right to live and work etc).
It sounds to me as if Olympic was rejected at some point and puts it down to his nationality. Trust me, it is not a factor that will preclude you.
Having the requirements, passing the interview process and sim stages may result in failure, but it will not be a nationality thing.
You just have to look at UK plc to see how many people are welcomed in here - BA is no different.
PS not from a rich family, not educated at Oxford, not BA sponsored cadet but BA B747-400 captain.

In order; Only other way is if a close relative is originally from an EU country, although each country has it's own requirements on how close the relative has to be. No EU airline will sponsor you, that I know of. Certainly not BA, KLM, AF, etc.....
