Default 71 deville ignition switch removal

How do I remove the ignition switch?
There is a broken off key in it
I have removed the steering wheel and the turn signal switch
There seems to be no logical next step

Ideas/suggestions
It has cruise control if this makes any difference

Thanks, I know more now thanI did then.
Unfortunately, I can't see how to remove the steering column housing.
Also the broken off key prohibits any chance of turning
