AMSTERDAM – Jan Smit, 44, Member of the European Parliament (MEP), proposed yesterday that Dutch should become the new official language of the EU after Brexit finally takes place next year.
“It can’t be German,” said Smit, “for semi-obvious historical reasons. The French can pretend that others are willing to learn French, but most people are not. The French are just too annoying when they correct you, even when they do it in English. And everybody hates the French. You know it; I know it.”
