I'm redecorating a cloakroom, which involves replacing the toilet and tiling the floor.
The old floor covering is out. The toilet and cistern are gone.
The soil pipe came out horizontally and then turned 90 degrees down and over what I presume is a clay pipe that then goes through the floor and presumably off to the waste sewer.
The white plastic soil now will not budge - although I've not hit it or pushed it too hard as I don't want to damage the clay pipe.
It looks a litle like this:

mine's horizontal and then turns 90 degrees down rather than being up-and-down as in the photograph. My white soil pipe is also a larger diameter than the clay pipe (so it fits over it).How do I get rid of the old white plastic soil pipe?
What would be the consequence of hitting/pulling too hard and breaking the brown clay pipe?
Thanks
