I.E. 89 days with my Gib sim followed by 89 days with my UK sim
Not that I would want to spend more than a few hours in Spain whilst transiting through.

They use a fingerprint related to the IMEI. It's anonymous, up to a point. It wouldn't take the authorities very long to figure out who it is if they really wanted to but I don't think they're interested in people crossing between Gib and the EU unless you're smuggling 2.2 pounds of something illegal.
Of course, to avoid your 'orrible neighbour altogether you could take a ferry to Tangier then up to Marseille which may increase your chances of the rubber glove treatment.

The Gibraltar sovereignty referendum of 1967 was held on 10 September 1967, in which Gibraltarian citizens were asked whether they wished to pass under Spanish sovereignty, with Gibraltarians keeping their British citizenship and a special status for Gibraltar within Spain; or remain under British sovereignty, with its own self-governing institutions

The Spanish Civil War ( Spanish: Guerra Civil Española) was a civil war in Spain fought from 1936 to 1939 between the Republicans and the Nationalists.
This resulted in many Spaniards flee to Gibraltar for safety

Gibraltarians will never accept being mere bystanders in their own decolonisation, CM tells UN C24
The Chief Minister has told the United Nations Committee of 24 that Gibraltar is willing to work with its neighbours to reach diplomatic and economic solutions, as it did with the Tax Treaty.He has vowed to continue to narrow the differential between tobacco prices if there is an agreement on a treaty for Gibraltar's future relationship with the EU.However he said Gibraltarians would never accept that they were mere bystanders in their own decolonisation. He said it was the Committee's role protect the Gibraltarians, and not seek solutions over their heads.
