Wash down to remove majority of poor quality paint, as you have
already tried in places.
Then seal the walls by brushing on a primer coat of PVA/water mixed
as per instructions on the can.

PVA is available from most / all diy chains, builders merchants and
even the local Wilko style places.

Once the PVA has sealed the plasterboard then paint as normal.

I've justed visited Wilko and read the instructions on the back of
their PVA. It actually says it is not suitable to be used as a primer
prior to painting so now I'm confused !

Well, have a look at:
