Current company policy is that you have to finish at your state pension age.
Unless you quit aslef, then you can carry on as long as you like!

I don't think that is the case. I believe the Employer Justified Retirement Age is dealt with under Collective Bargaining and therefore is a condition or arrangement negotiated or agreed with the applicable trade unions. Whether you are a member or not doesn't matter, as they act on behalf of the 'collective'.
The same as you won't get a separate pay deal or different terms and conditions - your grade's pay award etc. are collectively bargained for by the union - which the majority will be part of.

The Company put it to the staff to either finish at pension age or (subject to passing the yearly medicals etc), carry on beyond.
31% took the trouble to vote on their own future(s) and the result was to finish work at the state pension age..Unbelievable Jeff.
