Listen to a Northern Queenslanders accent vs a Victorians and you'll notice differant accents. It's probably not as bad as a New Yorkers compared to a Texan but the differance is there. I'd say most English speaking countries with a large landmass would have a variety of speaking styles.
I was watching a documentary on the typical Australian accent and it's origin is based on the 'cockney' accent iirc.
