I think the reason you didn't get much advice is you have a tricky problem to solve with the corner.
The 'cracks'. Paint with diluted PVA, fill near to level with bonding, finish filling with multi finish or easy fill or any surface filler.
If the area around them is very uneven then sand it flat before you start, maybe wrap some (40 or 80 grit) sandpaper around a block of wood and use that to flatten it.
The corner is a bitch, you really need some angle beading on there but you have no way of fixing it in place. Not sure how I would tackle it, just pleased I don't have to.

jfc... that was much harder than it should have been. Now how do I sort it out?
Want to have a smoothish alcove to put a fridge in (boxed in with space for the doors to open etc).
The remaining painted (lilac gloss, thanks previous lunatic) plaster is all sorts of angles where it was slapped over the shelves. Do I just take it back to brick? Or if plaster can go on top of it, prep how? Sand it to rough it up, fill in the deep bits with 'something' then pva-ish? It's an internal wall. You can see some bits of wood in there for some reason (that wall backs onto the main hallway and is v. thin - one brick I'd guess).
