Having been a Gmail user for several years, I can tell you there are infrequent periods when old Trash messages do not disappear precisely 30 days after being deleted. Once (years ago) I saw them go somewhat more than two months, before they caught up again.
Do I care? I don't. It was an interesting curiosity, but nothing more. If it really matters to me, all it takes is a click on the "Delete forever" button to make them go away. (There used to be an "Empty Trash" button too, but that apparently went away.) Are you afraid that your particular Gmail account is malfunctioning? I am puzzled when you say they are "in the Bin". That implies you are using an email client. In Gmail's own user interface, as far as I know it is always called "Trash", not "Bin".
