Next cut rubber around the inner washer and pop out the washer. You will be looking down the innards of the bearing. Drill into the plastic sleeve to loosen the innermost metal sleeve:

You are now looking at the central support - it consists (from inner to outer) of a plastic sleeve - rubber- metal sleeve- rubber - and a final metal shell. The final metal shell is pressed against the control arm, so don't go deeper than this outermost shell.
You need to remove the plastic sleeve (in pieces) first, then pry/ cut out the inner metal shell. This will free up the outermost shell - which I was able to then tap out with a punch:
