Melbourne will get a pretty wet, dare I say, almost
English, winter.

Mate, having lived in Melbourne (now further north) and visited
England,
a Melbourne winter is about as close to an English one as a Cairns
summer is to Glasgow.

If it ever drops below freezing, it's cause for a major "once in a
decade" news story. I saw a light dusting of snow on the Dandenongs
once
in thirty years.

If you really want to compare June in Melbourne to December in London
(refs http://www.worldclimate.com/,
http://www.usatoday.com/weather/climate/wlondon.htm :

Average max temp:
Melbourne 13.3C, 55.9F, London 8.3C, 47F
Average Min temp
Melbourne 5.9C, 42.6F, London 3.3C, 38F
Average rainfall
Melbourne 49.3 mm, 1.9", London 58 mm, 2.3"
