AIUI it's just the nationalisation of Openreach, or at least the part of Openreach that is responsible for the laying/maintaining the physical cables/fibre between exchanges and cabinets, and then between cabinet and premises.
This is so that, instead of just focusing on the areas where they're guaranteed to get a good return on that investment (as BT/Openreach seem to do most of the time), they'll hopefully actually start to make progress in areas that have the slowest broadband.
But many will still paint it as if a Labour Govnerment want to actually be an ISP snooping on all of the data. (If this were true then I'm sure the Tories would be straight on to it too.)
