using a pull over mitre saw (or a hand saw if you don't have one) make cuts across (not along) the back of the skirting to about half its depth, do these about every 10-15mm along the length of where the bend is, the skirting will now follow the bend of the wall, once fixed fill any slits visible from the cuts and decorate.

Using Kerf cuts, slits in the back of the timber will allow the skirt to bend.
