Political career
Since 1990 he has been an active politician. In 1992 he joined the Croatian Party of Rights.
He held different municipal positions in Osijek. He was a member of the Osijek Assembly for eight years. In 2005 he became the Deputy Prefect of the Osijek-Baranja County and from 2007 until 2008 he was an employee at DS Consulting. He worked as the Assistant Director of Osijek's Clinical Hospital. On 6 February 2009, he became a member of the Sabor to succeed Anto Đapić. He was the vice-president of the party until 7 November 2009, when he replaced Đapić.
Srb's main effort initially was to remove negative connotations associated with his party left by Đapić.

He condemned the convictions of Ante Gotovina and Mladen Markač (which were later overturned) by the ICTY.
