Can't achive the same margins for <a> and (inline) <p> in CSS

I'm creating a common navigation bar of text "buttons" using CSS. On each
page, I want the corresponding button to be "inert" (no hover, etc) as a
visual clue to where you are.

I thought I'd include simple <p> tags, and style them the same way as the
<a> tags, but I can't get it to work - I get different margins in each case.

I've reduced the situation to the essentials here:

Is there a fix, or am I swimming against the current? Suggestions very
welcome - it's driving me mad!
