A variant of football played by children on Merseyside. The rules are generally the same as association football, offside rule excepted. However, violent and dangerous tackles, which would usually be adjudged fouls, are allowed if the tackling player shouts "Brexit means Brexit" before or during the tackle. Shouts after the tackle are sometimes adjudicated to be fouls. The game takes its name from Boris Johnson's attempted tackle on Maurizio Gaudino during the England v Germany legends match in 2006.

"I know, the lad who tackled him didn't even shout "Brexit means Brexit" so it was a free kick anyway."
