This is much less of a pain since EU roaming charges ended on 15 June 2017.

"Roaming charges end on 15 June 2017. Europeans travelling within the EU countries will Roam Like at Home and pay domestic prices for roaming calls, SMS and data."

Happily using my UK SIM and data plan while traveling through several EU countries.

The Brexit should fix that for you.

Israeli sims have free roaming in EU. No reason why the UK can't keep that.
Because, when British carriers get a chance to fleece their customers without pesky European regulators spoiling the party you can be damn sure that they'll jump on that opportunity in a heartbeat.
