Take a flat-bladed screwdriver.
Put it between the yellow bit where the screw goes (threaded bit) and the outer white rim of the box.
Lever to left or right as necessary.
The yellow bit will pop out and pivot towards the inside of the box
Do both sides.
Push both yellow bits away from you.
(The yellow bits hitch in behind the plasterboard.)
It should all come loose.
Phew...........
