SWITCH CONTROL won't turn off

Muppet of the week award goes to this bloody Goose.

So playing with settings on me new Xs Max that I have not one clue do I've put switch control on and don't think I allowed enough time to select item so it just keeps scrolling on.

Now I can't get it off and I'm stuck at lock screen unable to do anything.

cannot do a basic power off as can't swipe to power off. I can hard reset but this does nothing to trigger a settings warning

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12
