A Foreign Office spokesman said: “The Prime Minister has made clear that the UK Government will meet its constitutional commitments to the people of Gibraltar and will not compromise on sovereignty.
“Our differences with Spain on Gibraltar will be resolved by political means through our relationship as EU partners, not through disproportionate measures such as the border delays we have seen over the past week.
“We have many common interests with Spain and wish to continue to have a strong relationship at every level with the Government of Spain.”
