It's a British English expression to the best of my knowledge, considered impolite except when used in a jokey way between friends: generally it's just an impolite way to dismiss or tell somebody to go away.

It's British vulgar slang. "Bugger off" simply means "go away".
"You're annoying me. Bugger off!"
"At 5PM it's time to close the office and bugger off home."
