The usual way is to remove the centre nut from the spindle, and then prise the wiper arms off - which may be bloody tight!
The wiper arms are aluminium and they self cut onto the tapered wiper spline......there's actually a proper extractor tool for this (which bends anyway
)

I have the Laser Tools equivalent of ch427's link, and its a pile too
So - nut off, squirt of WD40, rest the arm clear of the screen and gently rock it until it comes free.....if you're luck is in!

With the nut backed right off, the extractor forks slip underneath the wiper arm, and the screw thread bears down on the thread where the nut goes on to......and usually bends but tighten it and then give it a sharp tap.
As for the wiper nozzles, leave them be - disconnect the water pipe going to them.

B&Q, no - Halfords may do, but look up stockists of Laser tools and Sealey stuff. You may not need one though.
