No Bill you miss the point, if you read the article in link that request for English language to be used in EU (instead of French) was made by a former Italian prime minister, he wants English usage to make EU more competitive in world trade, he describes English language as our best export.
It is already a fact that English HAS been adopted by the whole world, it is the language of trade, diplomacy, air traffic control and business etc etc etc that it is not even worth discussing. English lessons are part of the mandatory curriculum of most education systems throughout the world and are as necessary as maths and sciences.
