Booked BMI, flying Lufthansa - tier points?

According to VS website, you get 1 tier point per one way journey with partner airlines if flying business class. If you book through BMI, but fly with another airline (code share) - do you still get the tier points?

Thanks.

See the Flying Club T & C's

15.1 Miles will only be earned on a code share flight with a Flying Club airline partner that has a 'VS' prefix. All other code share operated or marketed flights by the partner with an airline other than Virgin Atlantic will not qualify for miles.
