Only the cable side of things. The C&W fibre backbone has never been part of VM.
A deal between Vodafone and Liberty has been long mooted since vodafone sold their stake Verizon. However they have decided to enter the TV market without this, which suggests that they don't think the cost of Liberty would be of value to their shareholders.
Vodafone have enough issues with the legacy C&W network. It needs huge investment, and I think they think that they need to invest in that rather that acquire a company such as Liberty.
