Firstly disposal.
I have some memory that if you were to chuck away an electrical appliance
you should first cut the plug off.
However a cut off moulded plug itself seems dodgy as it could be plugged
in and have a live connection.
Very dodgy - in fact has killed a toddler in the past.
I would personally use a pair of mole grips to physically break the 3
pins off the moulded plug.
Then I would break the Live and neutral pins into two pieces each.
Once the moulded plug has been stripped of its 3 pins, I would then cut
the moulded plug off the cable.
