Between a quarter and a third of 2015 Labour voters voted Leave in 2016.
Between a third and forty percent of 2015 Tory voters voted Remain.
(Different polls have different figures. But that gives us a ballpark idea.)
Makes both the Tory and Labour Brexit positions a bit daft!

It means in theory, if Brexit is the number one concern for voters, up to two-thirds of Labour voters and forty percent of Tory voters are up for grabs by the LibDems. Even if they only convert a small fraction with their strong/controversial Remain stance, that's a big deal.
Bear in mind, the LibDems could (on paper) end up the largest party without winning any Leave votes at all. None, zero, zip. There are way more than enough Remain votes to put them over the top. I am not suggesting that would happen, but it *could*.
