THIS is the happy family photo John-Paul Langbroek would prefer never existed.

The embattled Opposition Leader has been caught trying to airbrush the troubled history of his tenure, with a doctored photograph of his 2009 team on his official website.

The original photograph shows Mr Langbroek's Liberal National Party team of MPs smiling and unified following the state election last year.

But the new version, digitally altered and posted as ``Team JP'' on www.jplangbroek.com, has attempted to paper over recent partyroom cracks.

Former LNP MPs Aidan McLindon and Rob Messenger have been airbrushed out of history following their defections. But the touch-up hit a snag because of Mr McLindon's central position. So Shadow sports minister Jack Dempsey was taken from the back row and put in place of Mr McLindon.

As Mr Langbroek prepares to face his partyroom tomorrow after a bungled reshuffle announcement and the ''tasers for teachers'' drama, Acting Premier Paul Lucas suggested Lawrence Springborg or Tim Nicholls may have their heads on Mr Langbroek's body by the time State Parliament sat on Tuesday.

''Doctored emails, fake policies and airbrushed photos - this is how the Opposition spend their time,'' he said.

Mr Langbroek would not say whether his office or party headquarters altered the photo.
