Quotes:
“Neuberger..... told The Times last week that an increased retirement age might result in ‘judges having to be told to retire early slightly more often’. ….. He makes a good case – but it would be more convincing if merely telling a bad judge to retire early was not so demonstrably ineffective.”
……………………
“So the lord chancellor should seek to put the judicial retirement age back up to 75.”

Suggestion: put up the existing retirement age, but only for those actually selected for higher office, to a suitable age to allow a suitable term. Keep the existing retirement age for the others. Perhaps then all the problems mentioned might then disappear. (to be replaced by other problems, perhaps?)
