The difference is that some of the key players in the Brexit debate, such as Farage and many ERG members, supported those views.
Well I'm not sure how prominent religious leaders and members and speakers at Didsbury mosque, the presence of ISIS and the other terrorist groups backed by different regimes in the Middle East is much different to be honest. They allowed and propogated the spread of those views and in the same way Brexit has become the UK platform for the spread of right wing views in conjunction with Trump in the US. The public figures just aren't as widely publicised to a western audience.
