Error: No p element in scope but a p end tag seen.

Hi,
I received this error in the html validator, but the html does contain a <p> tag at the beginning:

Error: No p element in scope but a p end tag seen.
>From line 27, column 572; to line 27, column 575

continue.</p>↩ 


Perhaps there is an error in the parser or you may have an explanation for me. Here is the html extract that is failing:

<div class="text">
                            <p>Refer to section 5 for a full list of numbers and contacts you could use (such as Lifeline) when asked <i>Who would I talk to?</i> Review this checklist:<ul><li>Express your concerns</li><li>Be calm and supportive</li><li>Ask open-ended questions</li><li>Be open, make eye contact, use relaxed body language</li><li>Summarise</li><li>Treat problems seriously</li><li>Thank and acknowledge courage</li><li>Refer to Lifeline 13 11 14</li></ul>Remember: Starting a conversation can save someone's life.<br/><br/>Select <b>Next</b> to continue.</p>
                        </div>

Cheers,
Ben
