even Spain's current government
Where do you get this from? Is this a remark that comes from antipathy to social democracy? Every speech by Sanchez that I have listened to over the last year has him promoting free trade, even the wiki says so:
Sánchez has been a strong advocate for finalizing the long-negotiated EU–Mercosur Free Trade Agreement,[170] which aims to establish one of the world's largest free trade areas.[171]

He's artifically pushing the Spanish economy in the region, and he's also sending in ships on a regular basis (no change from previous Spanish governments there) that UK has to chase away. Why do you think that is? If you want to know: Spain's official story is they want it back because "it's inconveniently placed" (they imply they mean for the Spanish fishing industry).

He negotiated that with the UK so that the whole border control thing could be ameliated that made commerce and travel more difficult than strictly necessary. I would argue that is more in the vein of enabling free trade than installing a tax. As for the UK chasing spanish ships, do you have a link? I mean, he is arguing for the UK to return to the EU every chance he gets and that was part of the negotiations for Gibraltar, is that what you object to? https://spanishnewstoday.com/s%C3%A1nchez-and-starmer-seal-new-uk_spain-pact-with-gibraltar-breakthrough-in-sight_1000234152-a.html https://spanishnewstoday.com/s%C3%A1nchez-and-starmer-seal-n...
