Push the pipe in, then push on the brass coller with a suitable implement, keep the pressure on then pull the pipe.

Don't cut the pipe, if you look carefully there is a little raised collar on the pipe that will prevent it going back in if it's cut too short. After removal it's possible to cut about 5mm off unless it's been done before.
