The facts are:
-Brexit will leave L1 English speakers as a very small percentage of the EU's population
-French and German are at least viable alternatives and French governments have historically made the promotion of the French language a priority to put the full weight of the country's power behind.
On the other hand...
-English is the global lingua franca and will remain so for the foreseeable future
-Even without Britain, English will still be the most widely spoken (including non-native speakers) language in the EU
I'd be especially interested to hear what Europeans think.
