Australia would be a lot more fertile, with only small portions of desert in the west and NW. It would be a lot colder not only due to the latitude, but because there is more rainfall with less desert and semi arid areas.

I'm going to take a stab at creating climate data for the cities in this scenario.

And post the climate data on C-D!

It would be more oceanic because of not much land on tropical regions, so it would heat less and be more similar to New Zealand. Tazmania would be similar to Patagonia, I guess.

They would be getting much more Antarctic intrusions

Darwin & Cairns might be a coastal desert (like the persian gulf cities)

Sydney, Newcastle & Melbourne would probably still be oceanic but just colder (maybe like Vancouver)

Hobart is like southern UK.

Perth would have Mediteranean climates.

Gold Coast & Brisbane would have humid subtropical climate.
Perth would be a very cool Mediterranean climate verging on oceanic. Think Seattle or Vancouver. I believe it will be more oceanic.

At 37S Gold Coast & Brisbane will also be too cool for their subtropical climate. Melbourne right now is at 37'S and it's far from subtropical. But since Brisbane is on the east, it'll still be warmer than Melbourne, albeit not that "subtropical". I think Brisbane would look more like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bega,_..._Wales#Climate

Perth and especially Adelaide will both certainly be oceanic at 42-45S.

The Australian landmass would still be generating high pressure zones during the summer months. I think there would still be Mediterranean climates, just cooler ones.

Hobart is already like the southern UK. It would be more similar to Scotland if it was further south.

It's a fair bit sunnier and warmer in winter, actually. But yeah, I guess something like at least northern England wouldn't be too far off the mark in this scenario.
