I hope so. The boss is a survivor, and through his stewardship I and hundreds of others still have a job. If he were to sell out to a predatory major, eg. Lufthansa (who already have a stake in bmi), then who knows what the future may hold.
bmi has long haul aspirations that pivot on getting permission to operate to mainland USA from LHR. It's political, but the company is long-term bullish on the outcome.
Happy New Year
