Default Cutting a spur cable

I have a spur in my kitchen feeding one socket. The cable has developed a
break and to save me a lot of hassle I was going to cut the cable before the
break and simply move the wall socket.

In the meantime is it possible for me to cut the cable and tape over it till
I do the job or does this break the circuit to the rest of the ring mains?

It will only be for a maximum of 48hrs

Thanks for any advice.
