Mr Östros, I presume?

My workplace is one of Uppsala´s fastest growing companies, and some people higher up on the ladder are starting to notice us. So the other day, our former Minister for Industry and Trade (näringsminister) Thomas Östros stopped by for a cup of coffee and a look-see at the office. He was given the VIP tour and was quite amused by our showreel which to him covered a wide range of products; from liquors to astma medication. "It´s all the same to us", our CEO declared with a voice that meant business.
Previous to his visit, Mr Östros and his escorting fellow party members had been attending the local pizzeria at Ekeby Bruk. While seated, a few youngsters from the nearby school dropped in and spotted his face.
To the great amusement of the people in the restaurant, they asked him: "Hej! Aren´t you Pär Nuder?"
