I think its a type of fungal disease. Either cut off affected leaves or spray with some neem oil to control its spread. Good luck!

Search the internet for diseases of broccoli.

Try looking up White blister (Albugo candida). I get this is my broccoli at times and it may be what you are observing. There are pictures on the website www.agric.wa.gov.au/broccoli/diseases-vegetable-brassicas?page=0%2C1 Cheers Larry
