How to remove/replace holder in standing lamp

Does anyone know how to replace the 'cup/socket' (not sure of correct term) in this standing lamp?
The socket is slightly broken and causing flickering. I've tried to firmly remove it by turning/pushing/pulling but nothing shifts and I don't want it to snap.
There is no way of opening up the metal housing so it must (?) be some sort of thread or clip.
Any ideas?
