Earth wires attached to neutral wires.

Hi, I'm in the process of changing plastic light swithes to metal ones and have found obvious earthing points in all but the landing light switch. Here there are 2 earth wires attached to 2 neutral wires via a terminal block. Should I just link the switch cover to the terminal block? The back box is plastic and I think the smoke alarm is on the same circuit.
Many thanks, Finn.

A note of caution.
Just because you can see earth wires does not mean they are connected. You do need to check all is as it seems.
