		<description>I think your observation that it is akin to writing &#039;Jedi Knight&quot; for one&#039;s religion on the census is an accurate  comparison.  Perhaps slightly un-parliamentary, but harmless enough.</description>

		<description>Well, &quot;country gentleman&quot; does sound a lot better than &quot;professional politician.&quot;

One conclusion I can make, from looking at Mr. Stoffer&#039;s website, is that he&#039;s an extremely private individual; it&#039;s pretty easy to see the line he draws between his professional life and his private one.  His Wikipedia entry indicates he has a sense of humour. So my guess is, he doesn&#039;t take the PARLINFO biography form all that seriously; it&#039;s like writing &#039;Jedi Knight&#039; in the Religion spot on the census.

In the name of privacy rights, I think we can cut him a little slack here; obviously his constituents do (why else would they keep him there for over a decade?).</description>
