Some even thought the famed Chelsea football fan resembled another former Conservative minister Ann Widdecombe.
While others asked if he takes style tips from his Tory colleague and Celebrity Big Brother star Michael Fabricant, who is also noted for his famous bouffant.
David used his appearance on the popular breakfast show to argue in favour of the two-child benefit cap.
He said: ‘I come to this with regret as I had my fourth grandchild last week, but the money isn’t there.’
Host Ed Balls asked the former Conservative MP: ‘David when you were in the cabinet you had family credit, which was there to help poor families into work and if they had three or four ch1ldren they got extra money for the third or fourth child. So were you wrong at the time?’
David fired back: ‘Probably yes. The thing is it is really not possible to put provision of assistance for ch1ldren of families above all the various pressures that there is.’
‘I think the problem is we don’t have the ability to fund his kind of expenditure at this time.’

Balls then invoked another famously-coiffed politician, asking: ‘So if B0ris J0hnson has lots of kids cause he’s reach that’s fine?’
David responded with a vicious barb against the former prime minister’s ch1ldren: ‘I personally think it would have been no bad thing if he hadn’t had any ch1ldren. So don’t worry I’m not in any hurry to have a new generation of Johnsons.’
He also debated with Clare Muldoon, a writer and mother-of-four, who argued in favour of scrapping the two-child benefit cap.
David was the Member of Parliament for Putney from 1979 to 1997, and served in a number of government positions including Chief Secretary to the Treasury and Secretary of State for National Heritage.
