My requirement is to open the ring at this point and run another couple

this:

1) Are these crimps the same blue ones as I use for auto electrical
work?

2) Should the earth be connected straight through, or connected to a
replacement back box (removed during this bodge).

If you replace the back box it then becomes 'accessible' so you could use
choc blocks for the connectors and fit a blank plate as a cover. I don't
think it matters that it's behind a cupboard.

I don't like those blue crimpy things. ;-)
