Newspaper review: Hunt's Labour warning and new Royal images

There are plenty of reviews on Friday's front pages of Sir Keir Starmer's announcement about what Labour plans to do early on if it wins the general election.

"Starmer lays cards on the table" says the Financial Times alongside a picture of him holding aloft a pamphlet featuring his party's new pledges.

The Times's political sketch writer, Tom Peck, calls them "baby steps for a PM who'll learn to toddle before he runs".

Sticking with politics, the Guardian reckons Sir Keir has proved himself to be prime minister in waiting. It says the launch of plans was a "stark display of how inevitable a Labour victory now seems".

However, the Daily Express carries a different message from the Chancellor who says taxes will go up under a Labour government.

It is a similar theme in the Daily Telegraph as the paper reports Jeremy Hunt will accuse Sir Keir of using "playground politics" to disguise plans to hit families in the pocket.

"Don't betray our Royal Mail" is the Daily Mail's front-page headline as it carries a warning from the Business Secretary, Kemi Badenoch, that she won't allow a proposed takeover of the firm by the Czech billionaire, Daniel Kretinsky, unless certain services are protected.

Finally, the i newspaper reports UK water firms are "dumping sewage on their own doorstep".
