I am not sure how 'legal' it is but I prefer on balance to extend mains
wires bu strippng, twisting and soldering the conductors and using
heatshrink tubing on live and neutral, and also an overall heatshrink
tube over the whole lot...

I tried crimping, and if you have the right wires crimp and tool its
fine, but do you?
