Here is the jacket.

PS: just researched 2/3 Field Regiment and it did indeed go to UK to "defend against invasion" in 1940. With the invasion threat over they were sent to the Middle East just in time for the Greek Campaign. They were the first Australian unit to get 25 pounders.

Looks like they arrived in UK with little equipment and the British equipped them with vehicles and old WW1 field guns. Probably where the British uniform came from. What is the badge on his sleeve?
