EDITOR GRADE: E

REASON: This member of parliament grade was the easiest to provide. Ms. Ferguson has to be one of the most underperforming honorable member to date. She has not made any substantial contributions to the House of Assembly nor public statements.

The constituency is currently plagued with violent crimes, yet Ms. Fergsuon has no made any notable announcements to bring the community together.

A simple google search is all that is needed to highlight her performance as a member of parliament.

Lastly, if the Free National Movement (FNM) is serious about holding onto Fox Hill in 2022, then the entire organization must unite around its embattled MP, Shonel Ferguson, who has hit a rough patch over the past 12 months with respect to her financial dilemma being played out in the public arena.
