I saw a fair bit of anti-British thinking in the European deputies. I sense France and Germany would be able to go through with a few things that previously they couldn't. It's hard to say if this would actually benefit Europe. It all depends if the UK's contribution to European debates is actually productive.

It's almost certain Britain's trading position would be weakened outside the EU. But I'm unsure if the EU would benefit from Britain's exit. It depends if the UK is blocking things would be positive for the EU, something I've seen no evidence of yet.
