That’s just politics. Ireland is still in the EU and Scotland may join it, so English will still be an official language, though its status may sink a little at EU HQ.

In the same room, which language would a Frenchman, a Spaniard, a German and an Italian speak?
Why would the EU want to admit Scotland? It is now a net debtor to the UK Treasury, and would require subsidies from the EU.
