LABOUR’S Sir Keir Starmer will seek to tiptoe into No10 today — by unveiling his My First Steps pledges.
The party leader is launching a Tony Blair-style promise card as he steps up campaigning ahead of the next election.
Blair’s own 1997 pledge card helped Labour win a thumping 179-seat majority.
But Tory deputy party chairwoman Angela Richardson said Sir Keir’s version was more like the notorious “EdStone”, on which failed ex-leader Ed Miliband carved his promises.
She said: “Labour’s latest attempt is fooling no one.”
Sir Keir’s vow to launch a Border Security Command to control illegal immigration has already been attacked by Home Secretary James Cleverly as a “pale imitation”.
And Tories last night said Labour — who vow to delivering economic stability — are offering “fantasy spending promises, without substance”.
Critics also compared Labour’s pledge to recruit 6,500 new teachers to ex-PM Boris Johnson’s offer to hire 20,000 new cops.
Sir Keir — pictured on the card with rolled-up sleeves — is putting himself front and centre to take on PM Rishi Sunak in a personality duel.
And he will venture into traditional Tory heartlands to reveal his offer to voters.
He said: “What is crucial about these commitments is that they are part of a long-term plan to get Britain back on its feet.”
