The PUPS contested the 2007 Serbian parliamentary election in an alliance with the Social Democratic Party, and Jeremić appeared in the eighty-third position on the combined electoral list of the parties. The list did not cross the electoral threshold to win representation in the assembly.Parliamentarian
After the 2007 election, the PUPS formed a new alliance with the Socialist Party of Serbia. Jeremić received the forty-second position on the SPS's coalition list in the 2012 parliamentary election and was elected when the list won forty-four seats. The PUPS participated in a coalition government led by the SPS and the Serbian Progressive Party after the election, and Jeremić served as a government supporter. He also led a standalone PUPS list in the concurrent 2012 Serbian local elections in Čajetina; this list did not cross the electoral threshold.In the assembly, Jeremić was a member of the committee on spatial planning, transport, infrastructure, and telecommunications; a deputy member of the committee on finance, budget, and control of public spending; a deputy member of the committee on agriculture, forestry, and water management; and a member of the parliamentary friendship groups with China and Russia.
In early 2014, it was reported that the Čajetina board of the PUPS had been dissolved and Jeremić expelled from the party. He denied the accuracy of the report. The latter claim, at least, seems to have been inaccurate; Jeremić was again included on the SPS's list in the 2014 parliamentary election, in the 128th position. Re-election from this position was improbable, and Jeremić was indeed not elected when the list again won forty-four mandates.
