Can someone fix this sentence edit
There's a sentence that is very confusing to me:
- In 2005, Tony Blair issued an apology for the miscarriage, on television, after the Speaker of the House Michael Martin refused to allow the Prime Minister to use his weekly Question Time to make the speech from the Dispatch Box.
I'm lost. What's the connection between the the start of this sentence and the bit that starts "after the Speaker..."? What's the Dispatch Box? Is that in the UK parliament? The way the sentence is written, it says that Blair's reason for making the statement was the he was disallowed from doing so from the Dispatch Box (so he did it out of spite for the Speaker of the House) - of course that's absurd, but that's what the statement says. Can someone clarify it and rewrite it, keeping in mind that Wikipedia is written for a Global audience (so calling Blair "Tony Blair" in the first half and "the Prime Minister" in the second half is confusing because some people don't know that he's the UK Prime Minister - most or all will know that he's the UK head of state or head of government or something like that, but not everyone will be certain that his title is "Prime Minister").
