Australians do not speak in a peculiar cockney accent. Australian English has its own distinct accent and dialect that has evolved since the first settlement of the country. While there may be some similarities due to historical connections with England, Australian accent is influenced by a variety of factors including Indigenous languages, immigrant communities, and isolation from the UK.

How does Australia's language sound?

The Australian language / accent is nothing like that portrayed by people pretending to be Australians on US television shows. It is not a "cockney" accent with the emphasis on the "oi" sound that it is propounded to be.Where Americans emphasise the "r" in words such as "teacher" or "neighbour", in the Australian accent it is more of a "schwa" (an unstressed, neutral, toneless vowel sound) so it comes out as "teacha" (unstressed) or "neighba". The language includes many shortenings of typical English phrases for easy use in day to day life. The late Steve Irwin (a.k.a. Crocodile Dundee) is an example of one of Australia's regional dialects, but it was very over-played, and few Australians speak that way.

Difference between an English accent and a British accent?

All English accents are British accents, but not all British accents are English accents. That's because England is one country in the nation of Great Britain. So if one was to speak in a 'scouse' or 'cockney' accent, this would be both English and British. But if you were from Wales, while your accent is a British one, it is not English.
