No tips for re-finishing other than slapping on a load of filler and skimming it (?), but I’ve had a bouncy bit of wall recently, and it’s due to the original earthen plaster losing its bond with/coming away from the bricks.
Photo is after purposefully starting to open things up.Does it feel like the whole section is bouncing when you press it?

How can I repair this internal wall and make it straight enough to paint?
Ideally as cheap as poss.
Have removed old built in wardrobe and as expected some of the plaster has come off with it.
It has lining paper on it and if I remove more of the lining paper then more plaster will come off too.
Victorian house, walls dry but spongy/bouncy in areas behind the lining paper.
Don’t think glueing thin MDF or wood onto the current wall is an option,
Could nail it on?
Plasterboard?
