Guys look what the angle grinder did to my pipework, how on earth am I going to fix it .

The white bend doesn't seem to move and it looks like I need blow torch the copper pipe .

Is there an easy way out of this

Sorry but angle grinders don`t do that on their own, what were you doing anyway and hope you have deep joists to take those notches. White pipe is solvent weld so dead easy to cut n join, copper pipes can be fixed with a slip coupling.

Angle grinder to lift floorboards? Really? Esp a board where tongue was probably snapped off to fit the pipes in the first place.
Anyway...copper first. Best fix is cut the raggy bit out, solder new copper in. You might have the depth for pushfit couplers- buy one and try it. If you do have the depth you'll need 1 std coupler and 1 slip coupler and maybe s short length of tube.
Placcie- looks like solvent weld. Again cut out raggy bit, buy length of right sized solvent weld pipe, a straight coupler, a swept elbow and some solvent. Cut to length, fit.

Huh? I can't make any sense of this thread. Anyone know what the grinder was used for and/or what damage it has allegedly done?

This is the leak I have and the bathroom , the reason my angle grinder took to the floorboards was to try and fund out whee it was coming from

Bad idea to fit any compression joint out of sight.
